[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1300286@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Keng-Yu Lin (lexical) has assigned this bug to you for Firmware Test Suite:

Hello.

I was running some early 14.04 Certrification tests on a Dell PowerEdge
M620 with a recent (if not the latest) BIOS on it.

Fwts logged one HIGH failure complaining about the Srat Entry being
unsupported.   The error looks pretty minor but I wanted to run it by
you guys just in case:

klog: Scan kernel log for errors and warnings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Test 1 of 1: Kernel log error check.
FAILED [HIGH] KlogSratEntryUnsupported: Test 1, HIGH Kernel message: [ 0.046680]
Your BIOS is broken and requested that x2apic be disabled.

ADVICE: The DMAR DMAR_X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit was set so the firmware requested that
the x2apic should be disabled leading to decreased system performance. The
firmware opt out can be overridden using the intremap=no_x2apic_optout kernel
parameter.

Full log attached as well as ACPIdump output.
