+/** @file
+  A hook-in library for MdeModulePkg/Universal/Acpi/AcpiTableDxe.
+
+  Plugging this library instance into AcpiTableDxe makes
+  EFI_ACPI_TABLE_PROTOCOL and (if enabled) EFI_ACPI_SDT_PROTOCOL depend on the
+  platform's dynamic decision whether to expose an ACPI-based hardware
+  description to the operating system.
+
+  Universal and platform specific DXE drivers that produce ACPI tables depend
+  on EFI_ACPI_TABLE_PROTOCOL / EFI_ACPI_SDT_PROTOCOL in turn.
