dmi_oem_strings

Synopsis

#include <opendmi/entity/oem-strings.h>

typedef struct dmi_oem_strings {
    size_t string_count;
    const char **strings;
} dmi_oem_strings_t;

Description

The dmi_oem_strings_t structure holds the decoded OEM strings structure (type 11) of SMBIOS: free-form strings defined by the OEM, such as part numbers of reference documents or contact information of the manufacturer.

The structure is returned by dmi_entity_info for the structures of type DMI_TYPE(oem_strings), and lives as long as the context it has been decoded in.

Fields

string_count: Number of strings the structure declares.
strings: Array of string_count strings, element i holding the string number i 1, or nullptr if string_count is 0. An element is nullptr if the structure has fewer strings than it declares.

Examples

dmi_registry_t    *registry = dmi_get_registry(context);
dmi_entity_t      *entity   = dmi_registry_lookup_first(registry,
                                  DMI_TYPE(oem_strings), false);
dmi_oem_strings_t *oem      = dmi_entity_info(entity,
                                  DMI_TYPE(oem_strings));

if (oem != nullptr) {
    for (size_t i = 0; i < oem->string_count; i++)
        printf("%zu: %s\n", i + 1, oem->strings[i] ? oem->strings[i] : "");
}
