           supplying a --dimm option at all.

           A bus id number, or a provider string (e.g. "ACPI.NFIT"). Restrict the operation to the specified
           bus(es). The keyword all can be specified to indicate the lack of any restriction, however this is
           the same as not supplying a --bus option at all.

           firmware file used to perform the update

       -v, --verbose
