Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07006 tristate 'IPMI top-level message handler'
Jan Engelhardtbcf6b4b2007-07-15 23:39:28 -07007 depends on HAS_IOMEM
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07008 help
9 This enables the central IPMI message handler, required for IPMI
10 to work.
11
12 IPMI is a standard for managing sensors (temperature,
13 voltage, etc.) in a system.
14
15 See <file:Documentation/IPMI.txt> for more details on the driver.

17 If unsure, say N.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070021config IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
22 bool 'Generate a panic event to all BMCs on a panic'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070023 help
24 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to
25 generate an IPMI event describing the panic to each interface
26 registered with the message handler.
27
28config IPMI_PANIC_STRING
29 bool 'Generate OEM events containing the panic string'
30 depends on IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
31 help
32 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to
33 generate IPMI OEM type f0 events holding the IPMB address of the
34 panic generator (byte 4 of the event), a sequence number for the
35 string (byte 5 of the event) and part of the string (the rest of the
36 event). Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are the normal usage for an OEM event.
37 You can fetch these events and use the sequence numbers to piece the
38 string together.

40config IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE
41 tristate 'Device interface for IPMI'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070042 help
43 This provides an IOCTL interface to the IPMI message handler so
44 userland processes may use IPMI. It supports poll() and select().
45
46config IPMI_SI
47 tristate 'IPMI System Interface handler'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070048 help
49 Provides a driver for System Interfaces (KCS, SMIC, BT).
50 Currently, only KCS and SMIC are supported. If
51 you are using IPMI, you should probably say "y" here.

Corey Minyard0dfe6e72014-04-14 09:46:53 -050053config IPMI_SI_PROBE_DEFAULTS
54 bool 'Probe for all possible IPMI system interfaces by default'
55 default n
56 depends on IPMI_SI
57 help
58 Modern systems will usually expose IPMI interfaces via a discoverable
59 firmware mechanism such as ACPI or DMI. Older systems do not, and so
60 the driver is forced to probe hardware manually. This may cause boot
61 delays. Say "n" here to disable this manual probing. IPMI will then
62 only be available on older systems if the "ipmi_si_intf.trydefaults=1"
63 boot argument is passed.

Corey Minyard25930702012-03-19 16:00:55 -050065config IPMI_SSIF
66 tristate 'IPMI SMBus handler (SSIF)'
67 select I2C
68 help
69 Provides a driver for a SMBus interface to a BMC, meaning that you
70 have a driver that must be accessed over an I2C bus instead of a
71 standard interface. This module requires I2C support.

75 tristate 'POWERNV (OPAL firmware) IPMI interface'
76 help
77 Provides a driver for OPAL firmware-based IPMI interfaces.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070079config IPMI_WATCHDOG
80 tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070081 help
82 This enables the IPMI watchdog timer.
83
84config IPMI_POWEROFF
85 tristate 'IPMI Poweroff'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070086 help
87 This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if
88 the IPMI management controller is capable of this.
