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.
52
53config IPMI_WATCHDOG
54 tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070055 help
56 This enables the IPMI watchdog timer.
57
58config IPMI_POWEROFF
59 tristate 'IPMI Poweroff'
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070060 help
61 This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if
62 the IPMI management controller is capable of this.
