DmiCiCommand

The DmiCiCommand block is included in the DmiMgmtCommand block and provides information for the component instrumentation.

The format for the command block is: ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

Variable Name

Variable Description
oCmdListEntry
Offset to the command to be processed. This is only used for Get and Set Attribute commands. For Get Attribute commands, the value is an offset to the appropriate DmiGetAttributeData block. For Set Attribute commands, the value is an offset to the appropriate DmiSetAttributeData block. For other commands, the value is zero.
iCnfBufLen
Length of the confirm buffer in octets of contiguous space. This is not necessarily the buffer length listed in the DmiMgmtCommand block. The service layer might have supplied a different buffer specifically for this command.
pCnfBuf
Pointer to the confirm buffer supplied by the service layer where the result should be placed. This is not necessarily the buffer pointed to by pCnfBuf in the DmiMgmtCommand block.
pConfirmFunc
Entry point into the service layer where the component instrumentation calls when the command is completed. The C prototype for this call is:

void pConfirmFunc(DmiConfirm *buf)

buf points to a DmiConfirm block.
