LinuxBIOS exports some information in a data structure called the LinuxBIOS table. It has been the expressed wish of many here to not have any callback functionality in LinuxBIOS, so no entry points or function calls to LinuxBIOS code. If you want this, have a look at OpenBIOS as a payload on top of LinuxBIOS. It provides IEEE 1275-1994 (Open Firmware) compliant callbacks to the operating system.
