You can refer this sysfs-firmware-dmi-tables as below: The firmware provides DMI structures as a packed list of data referenced by a SMBIOS table entry point. The SMBIOS entry point contains general information, like SMBIOS version, DMI table size, etc. The structure, content and size of SMBIOS entry point is dependent on SMBIOS version. The format of SMBIOS entry point and DMI structures can be read in SMBIOS specification. The dmi/tables provides raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI tables through sysfs as an alternative to utilities reading them from /dev/mem. The raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI table are presented as binary attributes and are accessible via: /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/smbios_entry_point /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI Best regards, Tim -----Original Message----- From: openbmc [mailto:openbmc-bounces+chli30=nuvoton.com@lists.ozlabs.org] On Behalf Of Garrett, Mike (HPE Server Firmware) Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2021 9:19 PM To: Andrei Kartashev <a.kartashev@yadro.com>; Thang Nguyen <thang@amperemail.onmicrosoft.com>; openbmc <openbmc@lists.ozlabs.org> Subject: RE: Read smbios2 file failed We recently did the same thing and got it working.

With this interface you can send the smbios tables to BMC either through LinuxBoot or host. The LinuxBoot code https://github.com/u-root/u-root/tree/master/cmds/exp/smbios_transfer. Writing and committing to this blob will generate the MDR header. -Jie On Thu, Sep 16, 2021 at 4:19 AM Thang Nguyen < thang@amperemail.onmicrosoft.com> wrote: > Thanks Tim, Mike and Andrei for very useful information.
