NAME
smbios-type-11 - SMBIOS Type 11 strings
SYNOPSIS
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/11-*/raw
DESCRIPTION
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(7)
parameters but generally are under control of the VMM rather than the boot loader or UKI.
For details on SMBIOS Type 11 see the
m[blue]System Management BIOSm[][1]
specifications.
STRINGS
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
m[blue]System and Service Credentialsm[][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(7).
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(7).
Added in version 256.
