This seems to be mostly fixed now. (probably by #1578022).

Now if I do "sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name" I get:

MacBookPro11,2
Invalid entry length (0). DMI table is broken! Stop.


(dmidecode package version 3.0-2ubuntu0.1)

Title:
  dmidecode error on MacBook Pro: map beyond end of file

Status in dmidecode package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I run from the terminal "sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name"
  on a Macbook Pro (as per the instructions from here -
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro12-1/Wily#Remaining_issues_and_optimization_potential),
  I get:

  mmap: Can't map beyond end of file /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI
  Table is unreachable, sorry.

  This is with a fully up to date Ubuntu 16.04 on a 2013 15" Macbook
  Pro. I attached the DMI file to the issue.
