com.ibm: Add SBE dump type

This commit extends the list of supported dumps by introducing the Self
Boot Engine (SBE) dump type to list of dump types in the
com.ibm.Dump.Create interface. The SBE is a microcontroller embedded
within the processor, responsible for initializing the boot processes
and acting as a secure conduit for accessing certain processor control
functions. During boot or hardware access operations, the SBE may
encounter errors and become unresponsive. In such instances, it's
crucial to collect debug data, which includes hardware state,
configuration, memory details, etc., from the affected SBE to diagnose
the root cause of the error. This gathered data is packaged into the
OpenPOWER dump format, referred to as the SBE dump.

phosphor-dbus-interfaces

YAML descriptors of standard D-Bus interfaces. The format is described by the sdbusplus binding generation tool sdbus++.

Before defining a new D-Bus interface or modifying an existing one, please read through the documented set of the common requirements and expectations.

Building

This project can be built with meson. The typical meson workflow is: meson builddir && ninja -C builddir.

The meson files used to handle the YAML files are automatically generated and found under the gen subdirectory. When adding or removing YAML files, this must be regenerated. This can be done with the helper script found in the gen subdirectory: cd gen && ./regenerate-meson.

Configuration

Only the xyz/openbmc_project and org/freedesktop interfaces are built by default. Other interfaces can be enabled by meson options:

  • com/ibm - -Ddata_com_ibm=true
  • org/open_power - -Ddata_org_open_power=true

Example: meson builddir -Ddata_com_ibm=true && ninja -C builddir
