Extend smbios enumerator module to enumerate motherboard
100%
Description
Currently we statically enumerate a node for the motherboard in the topo snapshot via a hardcoded definition in the topo XML maps.
The downside of this approach is that it prevents us from dynamically picking up useful bits of information like the motherboard model, and firmware version. It should be fairly straightforward to extend the existing smbios topo enumerator module (which currently enumerates DIMM slots and DIMMs) to enumerate the motherboard and populate it with information gleaned from the type 0x0 and type 0x2 SMBIOS records. This approach to enumerating the motherboard would also be inline with what the x86pi enumerator module does on Sun/Oracle hardware.
Note that this change is dependent on upstreaming Joyent ticket OS-6490, which is tracked via the illumos issue 9459.

Testing¶
See joyent bug below for how the chnage was originally tested:
https://smartos.org/bugview/OS-6560
Additionally, I onu'd my OI desktop with this change and tweaked the /usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fm/topo/maps/i86pc-legacy-hc-topology.xml to invoke the smbios enumerator to enumerate the motherboard and verified that it worked:
root@openindiana:/usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fm/topo/maps# fmtopo -V "*motherboard=0"
