SMBIOS 3.0 support in dmidecodean invention by jdelvare On February 12th, 2015, the DMTF released version 3.0.0 of the System Management BIOS Reference Specification. This update isn't just adding enumerated values to existing structures, as previous updates did. It is also introducing a new entry point format which allows for larger tables and structures. Support for this needs to be added to dmidecode.

DMI table conformance checkera project by jdelvare The SMBIOS specification includes an informative annex providing conformance guidelines for DMI table implementations. I would like to write a checker tool to verify the conformance of DMI tables, based on this document. Such a tool could be useful for system firmware writers.

Out-of-the-box SPD supportan invention by jdelvare In order to see the SPD (detailed memory information) data, the user currently has to manually load the needed kernel driver. Which driver to load depends on the memory type. Depending on the driver user, the devices may even have to be instantiated manually and this is a non-trivial multi-step task. Plus you need to be root to do it.
