dmi_dell_bios_flags
Synopsis
#include <opendmi/entity/dell/bios-flags.h>
typedef struct dmi_dell_bios_flags {
uint16_t flags;
bool is_acpi_wmi;
} dmi_dell_bios_flags_t;
Description
The dmi_dell_bios_flags_t structure holds the decoded Dell BIOS flags (type
177), which tell the features of the firmware the Dell drivers rely on, of
which only the support of ACPI WMI is known. The Dell SMBIOS WMI driver of
Linux reads the first word of the flags of the structures of 12 bytes and of
handle 0xB100; the rest of the flags is 0 in all known data.
The structure is returned by dmi_entity_info for the structures decoded
by dmi_dell_bios_flags_spec, of type DMI_TYPE(dell_bios_flags), declared
in <opendmi/module/dell.h>, once the Dell extension module
(dmi_dell_module) is enabled. It lives as long as the context it has been
decoded in.
