I'm currently trying to make FreeIMPI work on IBM x series 346 which claims IMPI compatibiltiy.
1. Compiled and installed freeipmi.
2. Found sms base address using dmidecode utility.
which is returned as:
........
.........
Handle 0x0035
DMI type 38, 18 bytes.
IPMI Device Information
Interface Type: KCS (Keyboard Control Style)
Specification Version: 1.5
I2C Slave Address: 0x10
NV Storage Device: Not Present
*Base Address: 0x0000000000000CA8 (I/O)*
Register Spacing: 32-bit Boundaries
using this base address modified the fish.scm in /usr/local/etc/fish/fish.scm
bash-2.04# cat /usr/local/etc/fish/fish.scm
;; fish.scm: default fish configuration scm
;; Customize Fish: (fi-set-prompt! "myprompt# ")
;; Set driver SMS IO Base port (fi-set-sms-io-base! #x0CA8)
3. Ran bmc-info It hangs without producing any results.
Invoked fish #/usr/local/sbin/fish bash-2.04# /usr/local/sbin/fish FreeIPMI Shell [fish-0.1.3] Copyright (C) 2003-2004 FreeIPMI Core Team This program is free software; you may redistribute it under the terms of the GNU General Public License. This program has absolutely no warranty. myprompt# At the fish prompt called, which gives bmc-info. # eval (fi-kcs-get-dev-id-display) At this point fish hangs.
Enabled debug and ran fish under gdb.
Put breakpoint at ipmi_kcs_wait_for_ibf_clear
It just gets stuck in while loop in this function, sms_io_base variable, which is set initially 0xca8 somehow gets changed to 0xbfbf under this function.
I wonder how sms_io_base gets changed to some other value?
Can somebody tell me what else can I do to further debug? I'll promptly provide any other info needed.
Thanks in advance, Avnindra
