[dmidecode] [Patch v2 2/2] firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point a


From: Ivan Khoronzhuk
Subject: [dmidecode] [Patch v2 2/2] firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point area attribute
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2015 15:28:38 +0200

There are situations when code needs to access SMBIOS entry table
area, but cannot use /dev/mem for this. As the table format is
consistent only for a version, and can be changed, use binary
attribute to give access to raw SMBIOS entry table area.
