SMBIOS-TYPE-11(7)            smbios-type-11            SMBIOS-TYPE-11(7)

NAME         top

       smbios-type-11 - SMBIOS Type 11 strings

SYNOPSIS         top

       /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/11-*/raw

DESCRIPTION         top

       Various OS components process SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings that
       a virtual machine manager (VMM) may set and a virtual machine
       (VM) receives. SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings may play a similar
       role as kernel-command-line(1) parameters but generally are under
       control of the VMM rather than the boot loader or UKI.

       For details on SMBIOS Type 11 see the System Management BIOS[1]
       specifications.

STRINGS         top

       The following strings are supported:

       io.systemd.credential:CREDENTIAL=VALUE,
       io.systemd.credential.binary:CREDENTIAL=VALUE
           This allows passing additional system credentials into the
           system, in textual or binary (Base64) form. See
           systemd.exec(5) and System and Service Credentials[2] for
           details.

           Added in version 252.

       io.systemd.stub.kernel-cmdline-extra=CMDLINE
           This allows configuration of additional kernel command line
           options, and is read by the kernel UEFI stub. For details see
           systemd-stub(1).

           Added in version 254.

       io.systemd.boot.kernel-cmdline-extra=CMDLINE
           This allows configuration of additional kernel command line
           options for Boot Loader Specification Type 1 entries, and is
           read by systemd-boot. For details see systemd-boot(1).

           Added in version 256.
