Some vendors like HPe or Dell, encode the release version of their BIOS in the "System BIOS {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0. This information is used to know which bios release actually runs. It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks. A typical output for a Dell system running the 65.27 bios is : [root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/bios_release 65.27 [root@t1700 ~]# Servers that have a BMC encode the release version of their firmware in the "Embedded Controller Firmware {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0. This information is used to know which BMC release actually runs. It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks. A typical output for a Dell system running the 3.75 bmc release is : [root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/ec_firmware_release 3.75 [root@t1700 ~]# Signed-off-by: Erwan Velu <e.velu@criteo.com> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de>
