     DMI(8)                                                     DMI(8)

     NAME
          dmi - x86 dmi dump

     SYNOPSIS
          dmi -m dmi -s
          dmi -m
          dmi [ -h handle ] [ -t type ]

     DESCRIPTION
          SMBIOS, also known as DMI, provides a number of system
          description tables in low memory.  Each table has a one-byte
          ID and a 2-byte instance handle.  There may be many tables
          with the same ID, but table handles are unique.  With no
          arguments, all tables are printed.  The -l flag lists the
          supported tables and table names. With -t id, only the
          tables with table ID or name matching id are printed.  With
          -m a summary of memory device by physical address is
          printed.  With -s a raw dump of syslog messages is printed,
          if the syslog storage method is supported.  Only 32-bit mmio
          is currently supported.

          DMI tables tend to have may errors and omissions.
