0004 Description:
0005 The firmware provides DMI structures as a packed list of
0006 data referenced by a SMBIOS table entry point. The SMBIOS
0007 entry point contains general information, like SMBIOS
0008 version, DMI table size, etc. The structure, content and
0009 size of SMBIOS entry point is dependent on SMBIOS version.
0010 The format of SMBIOS entry point and DMI structures
0011 can be read in SMBIOS specification.
0012
0013 The dmi/tables provides raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI tables
0014 through sysfs as an alternative to utilities reading them
0015 from /dev/mem. The raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI table are
0016 presented as binary attributes and are accessible via:
0017
0018 /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/smbios_entry_point
0019 /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI
0020
0021 The complete DMI information can be obtained using these two
0022 tables.
