Haiyue Wang be2ed207e3 ipmi: add an Aspeed KCS IPMI BMC driver
The KCS (Keyboard Controller Style) interface is used to perform in-band
IPMI communication between a server host and its BMC (BaseBoard Management
Controllers).

This driver exposes the KCS interface on ASpeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500)
as a character device. Such SOCs are commonly used as BMCs and this driver
implements the BMC side of the KCS interface.

menuconfig IPMI_HANDLER
tristate 'IPMI top-level message handler'
depends on HAS_IOMEM
select IPMI_DMI_DECODE if DMI
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_DMI_DECODE

if IPMI_HANDLER
config IPMI_PROC_INTERFACE
bool 'Provide an interface for IPMI stats in /proc (deprecated)'
depends on PROC_FS
default y
help
Do not use this any more, use sysfs for this info. It will be
removed in future kernel versions.
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,
by default, generate an IPMI event describing the panic to each
interface registered with the message handler. This is always
available, the module parameter for ipmi_msghandler named
panic_op can be set to "event" to chose this value, this config
simply causes the default value to be set to "event".
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,
by default, 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. This config
parameter sets the default value to generate these events,
the module parameter for ipmi_msghandler named panic_op can
be set to "string" to chose this value, this config simply
causes the default value to be set to "string".
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_SSIF
tristate 'IPMI SMBus handler (SSIF)'
select I2C
help
Provides a driver for a SMBus interface to a BMC, meaning that you
have a driver that must be accessed over an I2C bus instead of a
standard interface. This module requires I2C support.
config IPMI_POWERNV
depends on PPC_POWERNV
tristate 'POWERNV (OPAL firmware) IPMI interface'
help
Provides a driver for OPAL firmware-based IPMI interfaces.
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.

help
Provides a driver for the KCS (Keyboard Controller Style) IPMI
interface found on Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500).
The driver implements the BMC side of the KCS contorller, it
provides the access of KCS IO space for BMC side.

Provides a driver for the BT (Block Transfer) IPMI interface
found on Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500). The driver
implements the BMC side of the BT interface.
