SMBIOS Record Type 3

Reported by: Tiger Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 4.3.18
Keywords: SMBIOS Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Linux

Description

Record Type 3 for the SMBIOS 2.5 Emulation of VirtualBox for Linux x64 is incorrect. It reports the length as 0x0D (which matches the 2.8 spec of SMBIOS), but it actually has several more fields (0x17). Also it have several NULL terminated strings-Not just ONE! (string\0,string\0,string\0\0) should be reported. Instead, string\0\0 is reported. Code I wrote works on real machines, but is an error in Virtual Box!
