typedef enum dmi_dell_check_type {

DMI_DELL_CHECK_TYPE_BYTE_CHECKSUM = 0x01,

const char *dmi_dell_check_type_name(dmi_dell_check_type_t value);Description
The dmi_dell_check_type_t enumeration tells how the checksum of a range of
CMOS locations is computed. It is the type of the check_type field of
dmi_dell_indexed_io_t, dmi_dell_protected_area_1_t and
dmi_dell_protected_area_2_t, and of the range_check_type field of
dmi_dell_protected_area_2_t.
The dmi_dell_check_type_name function returns the printable name of a value,
as the command line tool shows it. The name is translated to the locale set
with dmi_set_locale, when the library is built with ICU4C support and has a
translation of it.
