Documentation: syfs-class-firmware-attributes: Lenovo Certificate support

2022-03-18T11:07:06Z

Certificate based authentication is available as an alternative to password based authentication. The WMI commands are cryptographically signed using a separate signing server and will be verified by the BIOS before being accepted. This commit details the fields that are needed to support that implementation. At present the changes are intended for Lenovo platforms, but have been designed to keep them as flexible as possible for future implementations from other vendors.

platform/x86: Introduce support for Systems Management Driver over WMI for Dell Systems

2020-10-28T09:52:16Z

The Dell WMI Systems Management Driver provides a sysfs interface for systems management to enable BIOS configuration capability on certain Dell Systems. This driver allows user to configure Dell systems with a uniform common interface. To facilitate this, the patch introduces a generic way for driver to be able to create configurable BIOS Attributes available in Setup (F2) screen.
