-2007-02-26 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Fix an array overrun while decoding the system
- event log status (DMI type 15).
- * biosdecode.c: Use printf instead of fwrite.
- * dmidecode.8: Some OEM-specific types can be decoded now.
- * biosdecode.8: List the FJKEYINF entry point type.
- * vpddecode.8: The product name is no longer displayed.
- * version.h: Set version to 2.9.
-
-2007-02-16 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Do not print the BIOS base address and runtime size
- if the base address is 0. This happens on IA-64 because there's
- no BIOS.
- * Makefile, README: Do not build biosdecode, ownership and
- vpddecode on IA-64, as IA-64 systems have no BIOS. This was
- quite tricky to keep both GNU make and BSD make happy, but it
- seems that I finally succeeded.
-
-2007-02-13 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- Update to support SMBIOS specification version 2.5, second round.
-
- * dmidecode.c: Decode new processor characteristics (multi-core,
- multi-thread, 64-bit) (DMI type 4).
- * dmidecode.c: Decode slot ID of AGP 8x and PCI Express slots (DMI
- type 9).
-
- * dmidecode.c: Fix the mask of 3 bitfield tests. This will let
- the memory type of some systems be properly reported as SDRAM.
- * dmidecode.c: Fix the AMD processors signature decoding.
- * README: Minor edits.
-
-2007-02-12 Jens Elkner <elkner@linofee.org>
-
- Update to support SMBIOS specification version 2.5, first round.

- device type "DDR2 FB-DIMM" (DMI type 17).
-
-2007-02-12 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmioem.c: Share the code between HP-specific types 209 and 221.
- Both types are really the same, only the title is different.
- * dmioem.c: Make the HP-specific types 209 and 221 output a bit
- more verbose.
- * dmidecode.c: Let --type decode OEM-specific entries when
- possible.
- * dmidecode.c: Include decoded OEM-specific entries in quiet mode
- output (--quiet).
- * dmidecode.c: Do not complain about truncated entries in quiet
- mode.
- * dmioem.c: Decode HP-specific type 204 entries in a safer way:
- check the length before decoding, and don't assume that all
- strings are provided in the same order as they are used.
-
- Update to support Intel AP-485 (CPUID) revision 31 (was 28).
-
- * dmidecode.c: New CPUID flag IA64.
- * dmidecode.c: Fix the decoding of Intel extended family.
-
-2007-02-11 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmioem.c, dmioem.h: New.
- * Makefile, dmidecode.c, dmidecode.h, dmioem.c, dmioem.h: Move the
- decoding of OEM-specific entries to a separate source file.
- * dmidecode.c: DMI type 38 is tested by now.
- * dmioem.c: The PCI function is typically represented as a single
- digit.
- * Makefile, dmiopt.c, vpdopt.c, util.h: Define an ARRAY_SIZE macro
- which computes the size of a static array, and use it where
- relevant.
-
-2007-02-11 John Cagle <jcagle@kernel.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Add support for 3 HP-specific entries: system/rack
- locator (type 204), NIC MAC information (type 209) and NIC iSCSI
- MAC information (type 221).
-
-2007-01-14 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Fix a rare warning.
- * biosdecode.c: Add support for the FJKEYINF entry point, which
- contains data related to the "application panel" on Fujitsu
- laptops.
-
-2006-05-23 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Fix a recently introduced compilation error with
- non-C99 compilers.
- * dmidecode.c: Check for short entries (less than 4 bytes), stop
- with an error when one is encountered.
-
-2006-05-13 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c, README: Drop the product name lookup table. It
- was reported to be unreliable too many times, and was also
- difficult to maintain.
-
-2006-05-10 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Don't cast from u8* to dmi_header*, else
- architectures which do not support unaligned memory accesses
- may break. Instead, copy the members individually. That's a
- bit slower, but that's also safer and we only need to do it
- once per DMI entry, so it's not time critical. So far, we
- were using a trick to later work around the unaligned memory
- access, but the compiler would still warn about the risk,
- which is always confusing.
- * config.h, types.h, README: Automatically enable the unaligned
- memory access workaround on ia64.
- * types.h: Inline U64. It makes sense per se and also lets us
- get rid of a warning about U64 being unused.
- * dmidecode.c: Detect EFI at run-time rather than compilation-
- time. Based on an original patch from Matthew Garrett. This
- will make x86 binaries work for both PC systems with BIOS and
- Macintosh systems with EFI. Also prevent a possible, though
- unlikely, NULL-pointer dereference in the EFI code.
-
-2006-02-25 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Fix typo reported by David Wilson (DMI case 3).
-
-2006-02-04 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Update lookup table from revision 2006-01-31 of IBM
- reference document (add product ID "7B").
- * version.h: Set version to 2.8.
-
-2006-01-21 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: The mysterious last character of xSeries records
- may be a BIOS revision. Display it as such when present and
- non zero, and ask users to report.
- * vpddecode.c: Adjust an error message.
- * dmidecode.8: Update the sample entry to match the new output
- format.
- * README: Improve the IA-64 specific section and the vpddecode
- tool description.
- * vpdopt.h: Add missing system header file include.
-
-2006-01-20 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Assume a constant length of 12 characters for the
- "Default Flash Image File Name" entry. The 13th character never
- contained anything useful, so it probably has a different
- meaning (unknown for now).
-
-2005-12-24 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Scan for VPD records on 4-byte boundaries instead
- of 16-byte boundaries. This is needed for some eServer xSeries
- 206. Still emit a warning if a VPD record is found not on a
- 16-byte boundary.
-
-2005-10-26 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Add product ID "NR". Reported by Klaus Muth.

- * vpddecode.c: Keep quiet when --string is used, even when no VPD
- record is found.
-
-2005-10-03 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * biosdecode.c: Fix a potential (but highly improbable) buffer
- overrun in the VPD record decoding.
- * biosdecode.c: Change the xSeries checksumming method to
- accomodate a strange xSeries 440 VPD record, as was done in
- vpddecode.c some weeks ago. Do not display the default flash
- image file name anymore, it's not so useful and the field length
- is now uncertain.
- * vpdopt.c, vpdopt.h: New.
- * Makefile, vpddecode.c, vpdopt.c, vpdopt.h: Move the command line
- handling of vpddecode to a separate source file.
- * vpddecode.c, vpdopt.c, vpdopt.h: Add option -s, --string. It
- prints one selected VPD string instead of the regular output.
-
-2005-09-24 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmiopt.c: Fix incorrect header include. The strcasecmp function
- is defined in <strings.h>, not <string.h>. Reported by Petter
- Reinholdtsen.
-
-2005-09-14 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.h: New.
- * dmidecode.c, dmidecode.h, Makefile: Export four specific
- decoding functions, make them suitable for external call.
- * dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h, Makefile: Make it possible
- for --string to print decoded binary data rather than only
- DMI strings. Add four such string keywords.
- * dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h: Modify the opt structure
- to handle the string option more efficiently.
-
-2005-09-13 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * vpddecode.c: Slightly change the xSeries checksumming method to
- accomodate a strange xSeries 440 VPD record. Also tweak the
- decoding of the "Default Flash Image File Name" entry. Thanks
- to Torsten Seemann for providing a test VPD record.
-
-2005-09-05 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

- and "76", update product ID "1Y").
- * dmiopt.c: Complain about unknown options again.
- * biosdecode.c, ownership.c, vpddecode.c: getopt_long() will never
- return ':'.
-
-2005-08-04 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * README: Manual pages document the command line interface.
- A discussion list exists for developers. Mmap is used on
- most systems, not just Linux.
- * version.h: Set version to 2.7.
-
-2005-08-02 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-

-
- * dmidecode.c: Hide handle references and entries of unknown
- type when --quiet is used.
- * dmidecode.8: Document the new -q, --quiet option.
- * dmidecode.c: Stop decoding at end of table entry when --quiet
- is used. Also don't warn about incorrect table length or entries
- count when --quiet is used.
-
-2005-06-17 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h: Add option -q, --quiet. It
- makes the output less verbose.
- * dmidecode.c: Suppress one level of indentation in the output,
- insert blank lines between records. This will hopefully make
- the output easier to read.
- * dmidecode.c: Hide table address and size when --type is used.
-
-2005-06-16 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

- * dmidecode.c: Centralize the main exit point. This allows fixing
- a minor, recently introduced memory leak which was happening on
- error conditions.
-
-2005-06-13 Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-
- * dmidecode.c: Add option -t, --type. It limits the output to
