| Contact: Ivan Khoronzhuk <ivan.khoronzhuk@globallogic.com> |
| The firmware provides DMI structures as a packed list of |
| data referenced by a SMBIOS table entry point. The SMBIOS |
| entry point contains general information, like SMBIOS |
| version, DMI table size, etc. The structure, content and |
| size of SMBIOS entry point is dependent on SMBIOS version. |
| The format of SMBIOS entry point and DMI structures |
| can be read in SMBIOS specification. |
| The dmi/tables provides raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI tables |
| through sysfs as an alternative to utilities reading them |
| from /dev/mem. The raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI table are |
| presented as binary attributes and are accessible via: |
| /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/smbios_entry_point |
| /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI |
| The complete DMI information can be obtained using these two |
