+Generate New Board XML
+======================

+Board XML files, generated by ACRN board inspector, contain board information
+that is essential to build ACRN. Compared to previous versions, ACRN v2.6 adds

+fixes.

+ - Maximum width of physical and linear addresses
+ - Device objects in the ACPI namespace
+ - Routing of PCI interrupt pins
+ - Number of requested vectors of MSI-capable PCI devices
+
+The new board XML can be generated using the ACRN board inspector in the same
+way as ACRN v2.5. Refer to :ref:`acrn_config_workflow` for a complete list of
+steps to deploy and run the tool.
