[dmidecode] [Patch v3] firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point area


From: Ivan Khoronzhuk
Subject: [dmidecode] [Patch v3] firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point area raw attribute
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2015 14:39:23 +0200

Some utils, like dmidecode and smbios, needs to access SMBIOS entry
table area in order to get information like SMBIOS version, size, etc.
Currently it's done via /dev/mem. But for situation when /dev/mem
usage is disabled, the utils have to use dmi sysfs instead, which
doesn't represent SMBIOS entry. So this patch adds SMBIOS area to
dmi-sysfs in order to allow utils in question to work correctly with
dmi sysfs interface.

v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/23/643
v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/26/345

v3..v2:
  firmware: dmi_scan: add symbol to get SMBIOS entry area
  firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point area attribute
        combined in one patch
        added SMBIOS information to ABI sysfs-dmi documentaton

v2..v1:
  firmware: dmi_scan: add symbol to get SMBIOS entry area
        - used additional static var to hold SMBIOS raw table size
        - changed format of get_smbios_entry_area symbol
          returned pointer on const smbios table

  firmware: dmi-sysfs: add SMBIOS entry point area attribute
        - adopted to updated get_smbios_entry_area symbol
        - removed redundant array to save smbios table

+               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.
+               That's why SMBIOS entry point is represented in dmi sysfs
+               like a raw attribute and is accessible via
+               /sys/firmware/dmi/smbios_raw_header. The format of SMBIOS
+               entry point header can be read in SMBIOS specification.
+
                DMI is structured as a large table of entries, where
                each entry has a common header indicating the type and
                length of the entry, as well as a firmware-provided
