x86, dmi, debug: Log board name (when present) in dmesg/oops output
The "Type 2" SMBIOS record that contains Board Name is not strictly required and may be absent in the SMBIOS on some platforms. ( Please note that Type 2 is not listed in Table 3 in Sec 6.2 ("Required Structures and Data") of the SMBIOS v2.7 Specification. ) Use the Manufacturer Name (aka System Vendor) name. Print Board Name only when it is present. Before the fix: (i) dmesg output: DMI: /ProLiant DL380 G6, BIOS P62 01/29/2011 (ii) oops output: Pid: 2170, comm: bash Not tainted 2.6.38-rc4+ #3 /ProLiant DL380 G6 After the fix: (i) dmesg output: DMI: HP ProLiant DL380 G6, BIOS P62 01/29/2011 (ii) oops output: Pid: 2278, comm: bash Not tainted 2.6.38-rc4+ #4 HP ProLiant DL380 G6 Signed-off-by: Naga Chumbalkar <nagananda.chumbalkar@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # .3x - good for debugging, please apply as far back as it applies cleanly LKML-Reference: <20110214224423.2182.13929.sendpatchset@nchumbalkar.americas.hpqcorp.net> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
