--no-sysfs Do not attempt to read DMI data from sysfs files. This is mainly useful for debugging.
Read the code to find out what this does exactly: https://github.com/mirror/dmidecode/blob/master/dmidecode.c
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
The feature apparently is used to test on a *nix system that has both sysfs files and another methodology, forcing other methodologies to be tried.
if (!(opt.flags & FLAG_NO_SYSFS) && (buf = read_file(0, &size, SYS_ENTRY_FILE)) != NULL)
other methodologies:
/* Next try EFI (ia64, Intel-based Mac, arm64) */ efi = address_from_efi(&fp); switch (efi) { case EFI_NOT_FOUND: goto memory_scan; case EFI_NO_SMBIOS: ret = 1; goto exit_free; }
or:
#if defined __i386__ || defined __x86_64__ if (!(opt.flags & FLAG_QUIET)) pr_info("Scanning %s for entry point.", opt.devmem); /* Fallback to memory scan (x86, x86_64) */ if ((buf = mem_chunk(0xF0000, 0x10000, opt.devmem)) == NULL) { ret = 1; goto exit_free; }
Sorry, something went wrong.
