Hi all I have task of making software for following hardware interface
PowerPC MPC8560 SCC ------UART----IPMI Serial Interface(Terminal Mode)---->BMR-AVR BMC As I am not much aware about IPMI I shall be grateful if anyone can clear my doubts Software Available OS : linux kernel > 2.6.17 on Host processor Driver : SCC driver (Serial Driver) available with Linux Kernel Host processor : MPC8560 (ppc) The host processor is MPC8560 (Motorola ppc) and its Serial Communication controller is connected to BMC(BMR-AVR) over Serial Interface. The mode required is Terminal Mode as defined in IPMI Specs 1.5. My task is to write a user mode application in linux which issues commands over this serial interface to BMC and get the responses. My doubt is regarding software stacking of the various drives and my applicatiom . Layer 1 -> My Application Layer 2 -> libfreeipmi Layer 3 -> Terminal Mode Serial Interface Driver (Linux) Layer 4 -> Serial Driver (MPC8560 SCC) Is the above stacking correct as per FreeIPMI framework or I haven't understood the things? If it is correct then is Terminal Mode Serial Interface Driver (Linux) available with freeIPMI and what all is required to customise it for using MPC8560 serial driver(SCC)? If it is not available where can I get the same? Thanks in advance, with regards, Deepak Gaur _______________________________________________ Freeipmi-devel mailing list Freeipmi-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freeipmi-devel
