#define SMBIOS_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS       0x000E9000
 
By the spec it should be somewhere between 0xF0000 to 1MB,
There is even a comment in the code:
 
/* SMBIOS entry point -- must be written to a 16-bit aligned address
   between 0xf0000 and 0xfffff.
 */
struct smbios_entry_point {
...
 
Any reason for that?
 
Thanks,
Guy.
