HI Mauricio,

The following command did not work : sudo apt install --allow-downgrades
dmidecode/jammy-updates

I was able to download and install dmidecode 3.4 to my jammy instance. I
checked the version with dmidecode --v and it stated 3.4.

I uploaded my updates bios with slot information, slot pitch and slot
width, and checked with the two commands below:

$sudo dmidecode -t 9 |more
$sudo dmidecode -t 9 -u |more

The "-u" command confirmed that the last 5 bytes in the Header and Data
hex info were 05 0A A2 03 00 for the E3 PCIe5 drives. However, dmidecode
confirmed they were x4 EDSFF E3 drives under slot type and that they
were SHort under Length. However, It was missing the additional
information to designate the generation and slot pitch/width of the
drives.

I'll attach screenshots so that you can see what I'm talking about.

Can you add these items so that they can match the spec, please.

Title:
  dmidecode support for SMBIOS SPEC 3.5 for type 9  EDSFF enumeration

Status in dmidecode package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  For EDSFF slot type changes no longer indicate the PCIe Generation supported 
nor do they indicate the full formfactor. To accomodate this severa sections 
have been added in the spec as follows 7.10.10 System Slots — Slot Information 
, 7.10.11 System Slots —Slot Physical Width , 7.10.12 System Slots — Slot Pitch
  , 7.10.13 System Slots — Slot Height. Currently they do no show up in the 
dmidecode 3.3 / Jammy 
  Untested on Kinetic. 

  This is related to a previous bug as well.
