Subject: [PATCH] lscpu: use sysfs for table access if available
64664a
64664a
On ARM systems, accessing SMBIOS tables via /dev/mem using read()
64664a
calls is not supported. The reason is that such tables are usually
64664a
located in EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICE_DATA memory, which is not covered
64664a
by the linear mapping on those systems, and so read() calls will
64664a
fail.
64664a
64664a
So instead, use the /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI sysfs file, which
64664a
contains the entire structure table array, and will be available
64664a
on any recent Linux system, even on ones that only export the rev3
64664a
SMBIOS entry point, which is currently ignored by lscpu.
64664a
64664a
Note that the max 'num' value is inferred from the size. This is not
64664a
a limitation of the sysfs interface, but a limitation of the rev3
64664a
entry point, which no longer carries a number of array elements.
