Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Porting Bochs bios to Xen/hvmloader?
acpi-dsdt.hex appears to be the ASL compiler generated output file for
the DSDT table in Bochs.  You could get that file from here -

http://bochs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/lxr/source/bios/

If you are looking for the Xen equivalent of that you might want to look
for dsdt.c under tools/firmware/hvmloader/acpi.  Readme is the same
directory is also helpful.
