LinuxBIOS also has the "LinuxBIOS table", which will at some point be
the base table which might allow you to create IRQ, MP and ACPI
automatically. This is only a concept so far and has not even been
designed, nor implemented.

Otherwise, those three table types are all you need to cope with. There
is also DMI/SMBIOS, but that is not required
