10
12 intel_vbt_decode is a tool to parse the Intel Video BIOS Tables (VBT)
13 and present the information in a human readable format.
14
15 The preferred ways of getting the binary VBT to parse are:
16
17 1. /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_vbt (since kernel version 4.5)
18
19 2. /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_opregion
20
21 3. Using the intel_bios_dumper(1) tool.
22
23 The VBT consists of a VBT header, a BIOS Data Block (BDB) header, and a
24 number of BIOS Data Blocks.
25
27 --file=FILE
28 Parse Video BIOS Tables from FILE.
29
30 --devid=DEVID
31 Pretend to be PCI ID DEVID. Some details can be parsed more ac‐
32 curately if the platform is known.
33
34 --panel-type=N
35 Parse the details for flat panel N. Usually this is retrieved
36 from the Video BIOS Tables, but this can be used to override.
37
38 --all-panels
39 Parse the details for all flat panels present in the Video BIOS
40 Tables.
41
42 --hexdump
43 Hex dump the blocks.
44
45 --block=N
46 Dump only the BIOS Data Block number N.
