Synopsis
dmidecode bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated dmidecode packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The dmidecode packages provide utilities for extracting x86 and Intel Itanium
hardware information from the system BIOS or EFI, depending on the SMBIOS/DMI
standard. This information typically includes system manufacturer, model name,
serial number, BIOS version, and asset tag.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, the dmidecode utility did not support the DDR4 type of
memory. Consequently, compiling of the dmidecode code for hardware with DDR4
memory type gave out of specs results. With this update, dmidecode has been
updated so that the DDR4 is among memory types and no longer returns out of
specs while compiling the dmidecode source code. (BZ#1192357)
Users of dmidecode are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
