dmi_entity_is_decoded

Synopsis

#include <opendmi/entity.h>

bool dmi_entity_is_decoded(const dmi_entity_t *entity);
bool dmi_entity_is_linked(const dmi_entity_t *entity);
bool dmi_entity_is_valid(const dmi_entity_t *entity);
bool dmi_entity_is_incomplete(const dmi_entity_t *entity);
bool dmi_entity_is_partial(const dmi_entity_t *entity);

Description

The functions tell how far a structure has got, by the flags of its state, the state member of the entity:

dmi_entity_is_decoded: The structure has been decoded, and dmi_entity_info gives the decoded structure: DMI_ENTITY_STATE_DECODED.
dmi_entity_is_linked: The references of the structure have been resolved: DMI_ENTITY_STATE_LINKED.
dmi_entity_is_valid: The structure has been validated: DMI_ENTITY_STATE_VALID.
dmi_entity_is_incomplete: The data of the structure ends in the middle of the fields of a version of the specification, and only the fields before that point have been decoded: DMI_ENTITY_STATE_INCOMPLETE.
dmi_entity_is_partial: The structure ends where an older version of the specification ends it, and holds fewer fields than the decoder knows of: DMI_ENTITY_STATE_PARTIAL.

The functions are defined inline in the header, and read the flags only.

Parameters

entity: Structure in question, which must not be nullptr.

Return value

Returns true if the flag is set, and false otherwise.

Errors

None.
