Add a configuration option to allow reset on MCERR

MCERR is another type of error that can be recovered by a reset. This
adds a configuration option to control if the BMC will allow that
recovery.

Tested:
Injected an MCERR and confirmed that when this option is true, recovery
is enabled. When this option is false, recovery is blocked.

Intel IPMI OEM support library

This component is intended to provide Intel-specific IPMI[3] command handlers for OpenBMC. These handlers are intended to integrate BMC with servers based on Intel architecture.

Overview

intel-ipmi-oem serves as an extension[1] to OpenBMC IPMI daemon[2]. It is compiled as a shared library and intended to both:

  • override existing implementation of standard IPMI commands to comply with Intel-specific solutions,
  • provide implementation for non-standard OEM extensions.

Capabilities

Related features provided by the library are grouped in separate source files. Main extensions to vanilla OpenBMC IPMI stack are the following:

  • Acquiring SMBIOS data over IPMI
  • Commands for better integration with Intel hardware
  • Firmware update extensions
  • Extended parsing of IPMI Platform Events[4]
