Mike Gerow a2734226ed smbios: add ability to specify custom OEM strings ... Type 11 SMBIOS OEM strings entries are commonly used to pass arbitrary information into a VM. For example, systemd's credentials[1] system looks for specially formatted values here. The main goal here is to allow parameterization of a VM when we're booting with OVMF, in which case providing parameters via the kernel cmdline is less useful. QEMU suports something similar, but this is a significantly simplified approach, allowing only OEM strings instead of a wider range of DMI table entries QEMU allows customizing.
