+ [Impact]
+
+ * opal-prd should be installed on OpenPOWER systems
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ * install power system
+
+ * check that /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ibm,opal/diagnostics exists
+
+ * if above is true, check that opal-prd package is installed
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+
+ * Additional package installation is performed, thus the install
+ process may take longer, and additional disk space will be used. However
+ the new code path is non-fatal, and all errors are ignored, thus all
+ installation should still proceed past this point. For systems without
+ relevant diagnostics exposed, this code path is a no-op.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ * Original bug report
+
Just tried an install with current 16.04 network media, using standard
server package selections, and it looks like opal-prd isn't installed by
default:
- [jk@fstn ~]$ dpkg -l opal-prd
- dpkg-query: no packages found matching opal-prd
+ [jk@fstn ~]$ dpkg -l opal-prd
+ dpkg-query: no packages found matching opal-prd
This is required for RAS-type functions on OpenPOWER machines; and has a
similar role to something like acpid, on x86.
I'm not sure whether filing this against the skiboot package is best, or
whether this should be moved to something installer-related. Happy to
shift if necessary.
