systemd: rename service file to align with repo name Updated systemd service file as following for better readability start-ipkvm.service -> obmc-ikvm.service Testing: Verified systemd service using QEMU + AST2600EVB firmware. Before changes: root@evb-ast2600:~# systemctl status start-ipkvm * start-ipkvm.service - OpenBMC ipKVM daemon After changes: root@evb-ast2600:~# systemctl status obmc-ikvm * obmc-ikvm.service - OpenBMC ipKVM daemon Change-Id: I8260a09b074b04c47821758c31ecad5d53eca40c Signed-off-by: Mohammed Javith Akthar M <mohammedjavitham@ami.com>
The obmc-ikvm application is a VNC server that provides access to the host graphics output. The application interfaces with the video device on the BMC that captures the host graphics, and then serves that video data on the RFB (remote framebuffer, also known as VNC) protocol. The application also interfaces with the BMC USB gadget device to pass HID events from the BMC to the host, allowing the user to interact with the host system.
Once the host is running and an appropriate HID gadget device is instantiated on the BMC, the application can be started with the following command: obmc-ikvm -v <video device path> -i <HID gadget device path>
For example:
obmc-ikvm -v /dev/video0 -i /dev/hidg0
