5 menuconfig IPMI_HANDLER
6 tristate 'IPMI top-level message handler'
8 select IPMI_DMI_DECODE if DMI
10 This enables the central IPMI message handler, required for IPMI
13 IPMI is a standard for managing sensors (temperature,
14 voltage, etc.) in a system.
16 See <file:Documentation/IPMI.txt> for more details on the driver.
20 config IPMI_DMI_DECODE
25 config IPMI_PROC_INTERFACE
26 bool 'Provide an interface for IPMI stats in /proc (deprecated)'
30 Do not use this any more, use sysfs for this info. It will be
31 removed in future kernel versions.
33 config IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
34 bool 'Generate a panic event to all BMCs on a panic'
36 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to,
37 by default, generate an IPMI event describing the panic to each
38 interface registered with the message handler. This is always
39 available, the module parameter for ipmi_msghandler named
40 panic_op can be set to "event" to chose this value, this config
41 simply causes the default value to be set to "event".
43 config IPMI_PANIC_STRING
44 bool 'Generate OEM events containing the panic string'
45 depends on IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
47 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to,
48 by default, generate IPMI OEM type f0 events holding the IPMB
49 address of the panic generator (byte 4 of the event), a sequence
50 number for the string (byte 5 of the event) and part of the
51 string (the rest of the event). Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are the normal
52 usage for an OEM event. You can fetch these events and use the
53 sequence numbers to piece the string together. This config
54 parameter sets the default value to generate these events,
55 the module parameter for ipmi_msghandler named panic_op can
56 be set to "string" to chose this value, this config simply
57 causes the default value to be set to "string".
59 config IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE
60 tristate 'Device interface for IPMI'
62 This provides an IOCTL interface to the IPMI message handler so
63 userland processes may use IPMI. It supports poll() and select().
66 tristate 'IPMI System Interface handler'
68 Provides a driver for System Interfaces (KCS, SMIC, BT).
69 Currently, only KCS and SMIC are supported. If
70 you are using IPMI, you should probably say "y" here.
73 tristate 'IPMI SMBus handler (SSIF)'
76 Provides a driver for a SMBus interface to a BMC, meaning that you
77 have a driver that must be accessed over an I2C bus instead of a
78 standard interface. This module requires I2C support.
81 depends on PPC_POWERNV
82 tristate 'POWERNV (OPAL firmware) IPMI interface'
84 Provides a driver for OPAL firmware-based IPMI interfaces.
87 tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer'
89 This enables the IPMI watchdog timer.
92 tristate 'IPMI Poweroff'
94 This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if
95 the IPMI management controller is capable of this.
99 config ASPEED_BT_IPMI_BMC
100 depends on ARCH_ASPEED || COMPILE_TEST
101 depends on REGMAP && REGMAP_MMIO && MFD_SYSCON
102 tristate "BT IPMI bmc driver"
104 Provides a driver for the BT (Block Transfer) IPMI interface
105 found on Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500). The driver
106 implements the BMC side of the BT interface.
