12 This option enables device driver support for in-band access to the
13 IBM RSA (Condor) service processor in eServer xSeries systems.
14 The ibmasm device driver allows user space application to access
15 ASM (Advanced Systems Management) functions on the service
16 processor. The driver is meant to be used in conjunction with
17 a user space API.
18 The ibmasm driver also enables the OS to use the UART on the
19 service processor board as a regular serial port. To make use of
20 this feature serial driver support (CONFIG_SERIAL_8250) must be
21 enabled.
