smbios-type-11 - SMBIOS Type 11 strings

Various OS components process SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings that a virtual machine manager (VMM) may set and a virtual machine (VM) receives. SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings may play a similar role as kernel-command-line(7) parameters but generally are under control of the VMM rather than the boot loader or UKI. For details on SMBIOS Type 11 see the SystemManagementBIOS[1] specifications.
