Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

6config IPMI_HANDLER
7 tristate 'IPMI top-level message handler'
8 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.
16
17 If unsure, say N.

19config IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
20 bool 'Generate a panic event to all BMCs on a panic'
21 depends on IPMI_HANDLER
22 help
23 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to
24 generate an IPMI event describing the panic to each interface
25 registered with the message handler.
26
27config IPMI_PANIC_STRING
28 bool 'Generate OEM events containing the panic string'
29 depends on IPMI_PANIC_EVENT
30 help
31 When a panic occurs, this will cause the IPMI message handler to
32 generate IPMI OEM type f0 events holding the IPMB address of the
33 panic generator (byte 4 of the event), a sequence number for the
34 string (byte 5 of the event) and part of the string (the rest of the
35 event). Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are the normal usage for an OEM event.
36 You can fetch these events and use the sequence numbers to piece the
37 string together.
38
39config IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE
40 tristate 'Device interface for IPMI'
41 depends on IPMI_HANDLER
42 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'
48 depends on IPMI_HANDLER
49 help
50 Provides a driver for System Interfaces (KCS, SMIC, BT).
51 Currently, only KCS and SMIC are supported. If
52 you are using IPMI, you should probably say "y" here.
53
54config IPMI_WATCHDOG
55 tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer'
56 depends on IPMI_HANDLER
57 help
58 This enables the IPMI watchdog timer.
59
60config IPMI_POWEROFF
61 tristate 'IPMI Poweroff'
62 depends on IPMI_HANDLER
63 help
64 This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if
65 the IPMI management controller is capable of this.
