Out of range value 0x3d of Type 4 Offset 0x19 and out of range value 0x26 of Type 9 Offset 0x05

[Alex Hung]

Hi Bryan,

FWTS also checks for the SMBIOS version (= 3.3 currently) like below. In
theory FWTS will skip the dmicheck test. Did you also upgrade your SMBIOS
version to 3.4?


if (version > DMI_VERSION) {
fwts_skipped(fw,
"SMBIOS version %" PRIu16 ".%" PRIu16
" is not supported by the dmicheck "
"test. This test only supports SMBIOS version "
"%" PRIu16 ".%" PRIu16 " and lower.",
VERSION_MAJOR(version), VERSION_MINOR(version),
VERSION_MAJOR(DMI_VERSION), VERSION_MINOR(DMI_VERSION));
return FWTS_ERROR;
}
