Pull request for efi-2021-07-rc5-2

Dear Tom,
I have removed the one patch for better EFI/DM integration that caused sandbox test problems on my last pull request. This topic needs more coordination with Simon.
Gitlab CI showed no problems: https://source.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-efi/-/pipelines/7968

Hi Heinrich and Ilias,
We use SMBIOS/DMI entries to identify our boards. For some reason the device tree entries are not being passed to /sys/class/virtual/dmi/id. I'm using master as of this morning.

There's two issues:
1) I just saw this patch: "x86: Provide default SMBIOS manufacturer/product". Should we add the same thing for ARM or maybe generically across the board?
2) The DMI entries previously took CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR and CONFIG_SYS_BOARD entries as manufacturer and product respectively. Now those entries become Unknown and Unknown Product.
Best,
Da

There's two issues:
- I just saw this patch: "x86: Provide default SMBIOS
manufacturer/product". Should we add the same thing for ARM or maybe generically across the board?
- The DMI entries previously took CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR and
CONFIG_SYS_BOARD entries as manufacturer and product respectively. Now those entries become Unknown and Unknown Product.
Having file smbios.dtsi in an x86 specific path (arch/x86/dts/) does not make much sense. There is nothing architecture specific in it.
Maybe where Ilias now has filled the missing properties with 'Unknown' he should have opted for CONFIG_SYS* instead if available. This would make smbios.dtsi superfluous.

Heinrich

There's two issues:
- I just saw this patch: "x86: Provide default SMBIOS
manufacturer/product". Should we add the same thing for ARM or maybe generically across the board?
- The DMI entries previously took CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR and
CONFIG_SYS_BOARD entries as manufacturer and product respectively. Now those entries become Unknown and Unknown Product.
Which version was that? My patch changed nothing in that regard. The only thing my patch did was fix e4f8e543f1a9 which removed some Kconfig options. Removing those made the strings "" which is against the spec. Heinrich fixed a similar issue with 00a871d34e2f back when we had CONFIG_SMBIOS_MANUFACTURER and CONFIG_SMBIOS_PRODUCT_NAME. Any chance that was your working version and those values were used?
Having file smbios.dtsi in an x86 specific path (arch/x86/dts/) does not make much sense. There is nothing architecture specific in it.
Maybe where Ilias now has filled the missing properties with 'Unknown' he should have opted for CONFIG_SYS* instead if available. This would make smbios.dtsi superfluous.
We discussed this with Simon and I'll send a follow up patch. The idea is to try and use CONFIG_SYS* and if those are not available, pop a warning and use Unknown

Which version was that? My patch changed nothing in that regard.
commit 44ffb6f0ecaf ("smbios: Allow properties to come from the device tree") still used CONFIG symbols.
commit e4f8e543f1a9 ("smbios: Drop the unused Kconfig options") dropped the CONFIG symbols
Best regards

The only thing my patch did was fix e4f8e543f1a9 which removed some Kconfig options. Removing those made the strings "" which is against the spec. Heinrich fixed a similar issue with 00a871d34e2f back when we had CONFIG_SMBIOS_MANUFACTURER and CONFIG_SMBIOS_PRODUCT_NAME. Any chance that was your working version and those values were used?

Exactly, that was the point I tried to make. I think whatever Da was seing on his entires as 'correct' was prior to e4f8e543f1a9.
