From f5152f4ded3ce6d332d5e4f9d7e325c3b81cae1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erwan Velu Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2020 11:35:50 +0200 Subject: firmware/dmi: Report DMI Bios & EC firmware release Some vendors like HPe or Dell, encode the release version of their BIOS in the "System BIOS {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0. This information is used to know which bios release actually runs. It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks. A typical output for a Dell system running the 65.27 bios is : [root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/bios_release 65.27 [root@t1700 ~]# Servers that have a BMC encode the release version of their firmware in the "Embedded Controller Firmware {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0. This information is used to know which BMC release actually runs. It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks. A typical output for a Dell system running the 3.75 bmc release is : [root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/ec_firmware_release 3.75 [root@t1700 ~]# Signed-off-by: Erwan Velu Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare --- scripts/mod/file2alias.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'scripts/mod/file2alias.c') diff --git a/scripts/mod/file2alias.c b/scripts/mod/file2alias.c index 02d5d79da284..9599e2a3f1e6 100644 --- a/scripts/mod/file2alias.c +++ b/scripts/mod/file2alias.c @@ -954,6 +954,8 @@ static const struct dmifield { { "bvn", DMI_BIOS_VENDOR }, { "bvr", DMI_BIOS_VERSION }, { "bd", DMI_BIOS_DATE }, + { "br", DMI_BIOS_RELEASE }, + { "efr", DMI_EC_FIRMWARE_RELEASE }, { "svn", DMI_SYS_VENDOR }, { "pn", DMI_PRODUCT_NAME }, { "pvr", DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION }, -- cgit v1.2.3
