Add IPMB bridge recipe The IPMB bridge implements a Dbus compliant interface for implementing IPMB interfaces. This uses the mslave and dev/i2c-X devices to implement a two way bridge. This bridge is used both for responding to IPMB requests initiated from the IPMB channel, as well as initiating new requests to other devices (Like Management Engine). Tested by: Booted ipmb service on OpenBMC, and observed communication with a management engine work in both directions (ME-> BMC and BMC->ME) (From meta-phosphor rev: d71a48b23649680cc6a6ba273666d91cfa6303f0) Change-Id: I767087b815f0b6db946465c401446836dd5d226f Signed-off-by: Dawid Frycki <dawid.frycki@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Brad Bishop <bradleyb@fuzziesquirrel.com>
The OpenBMC project can be described as a Linux distribution for embedded devices that have a BMC; typically, but not limited to, things like servers, top of rack switches or RAID appliances. The OpenBMC stack uses technologies such as Yocto, OpenEmbedded, systemd, and D-Bus to allow easy customization for your server platform.

Any build requires an environment variable known as TEMPLATECONF
to be set to a hardware target. You can see all of the known targets with find meta-* -name local.conf.sample
. Choose the hardware target and then move to the next step. Additional examples can be found in the OpenBMC Cheatsheet
Machine | TEMPLATECONF |
---|---|
Palmetto | meta-ibm/meta-palmetto/conf |
Zaius | meta-ingrasys/meta-zaius/conf |
Witherspoon | meta-ibm/meta-witherspoon/conf |
Romulus | meta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf |
As an example target Palmetto
export TEMPLATECONF=meta-ibm/meta-palmetto/conf
. openbmc-env bitbake obmc-phosphor-image

Commits submitted by members of the OpenBMC GitHub community are compiled and tested via our Jenkins server. Commits are run through two levels of testing. At the repository level the makefile make check
directive is run. At the system level, the commit is built into a firmware image and run with an arm-softmmu QEMU model against a barrage of CI tests.
Commits submitted by non-members do not automatically proceed through CI testing. After visual inspection of the commit, a CI run can be manually performed by the reviewer.
Automated testing against the QEMU model along with supported systems are performed. The OpenBMC project uses the Robot Framework for all automation. Our complete test repository can be found here.
Support of additional hardware and software packages is always welcome. Please follow the contributing guidelines when making a submission. It is expected that contributions contain test cases.
Issues are managed on GitHub. It is recommended you search through the issues before opening a new one.
