1. A computer system comprising:
a basic input output system (BIOS);
a memory; and
a central processing unit coupled to the memory and the BIOS, the central processing unit including a bootstrap processor executing a system management interrupt handler stored in the BIOS to trigger a system management interrupt (SMI) in a system management mode, wherein the bootstrap processor executes the system management interrupt handler to convert the data to a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format and store JSON format data relating to the SMI in the memory, the data relating to the SMI including the source of the SMI.
