| tristate 'IPMI top-level message handler' |
| depends on HAS_IOMEM |
| help |
| This enables the central IPMI message handler, required for IPMI |
| to work. |
| |
| IPMI is a standard for managing sensors (temperature, |
| voltage, etc.) in a system. |
| |
| See <file:Documentation/IPMI.txt> for more details on the driver. |
| |
| If unsure, say N. |

| config IPMI_PANIC_EVENT |
| bool 'Generate a panic event to all BMCs on a panic' |
| help |
| When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to |
| generate an IPMI event describing the panic to each interface |
| registered with the message handler. |
| |
| config IPMI_PANIC_STRING |
| bool 'Generate OEM events containing the panic string' |
| depends on IPMI_PANIC_EVENT |
| help |
| When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to |
| generate IPMI OEM type f0 events holding the IPMB address of the |
| panic generator (byte 4 of the event), a sequence number for the |
| string (byte 5 of the event) and part of the string (the rest of the |
| event). Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are the normal usage for an OEM event. |
| You can fetch these events and use the sequence numbers to piece the |
| string together. |
| |
| config IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE |
| tristate 'Device interface for IPMI' |
| help |
| This provides an IOCTL interface to the IPMI message handler so |
| userland processes may use IPMI. It supports poll() and select(). |
| |
| config IPMI_SI |
| tristate 'IPMI System Interface handler' |
| help |
| Provides a driver for System Interfaces (KCS, SMIC, BT). |
| Currently, only KCS and SMIC are supported. If |
| you are using IPMI, you should probably say "y" here. |
| |
| config IPMI_WATCHDOG |
| tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer' |
| help |
| This enables the IPMI watchdog timer. |
| |
| config IPMI_POWEROFF |
| tristate 'IPMI Poweroff' |
| help |
| This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if |
| the IPMI management controller is capable of this. |
