pseq: Remove output voltage comparison to OV limit

The pgood isolation algorithm for the phosphor-power-sequencer
application is being enhanced to handle more error scenarios.

One major enhancement is the option to determine the pgood status of a
voltage rail by comparing the output voltage to a fault limit.

The original design was to compare the output voltage to both the
overvoltage limit (VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT) and the undervoltage limit
(VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT).

After discussions with subject matter experts, the design has been
changed to remove the comparison with the overvoltage limit.  While this
is important status information, it is not necessarily indicative of a
pgood fault and could lead to false positives.

Overview

This repository contains applications for configuring and monitoring devices that deliver power to the system.

  • cold-redundancy: Application that makes power supplies work in Cold Redundancy mode and rotates them at intervals.
  • phosphor-power-sequencer: Applications for configuring and monitoring power sequencer and related devices that support JSON-driven configuration.
  • phosphor-power-supply: Next generation power supply monitoring application.
  • phosphor-regulators: JSON-driven application that configures and monitors voltage regulators.
  • power-sequencer: A power sequencer monitoring application.
  • power-supply: Original power supply monitoring application.
  • tools/power-utils: Power supply utilities.

Build

To build all applications in this repository:

  meson setup build
  ninja -C build

To clean the repository and remove all build output:

  rm -rf build

You can specify meson options to customize the build process. For example, you can specify:

  • Which applications to build and install.
  • Application-specific configuration data, such as power sequencer type.
  • Whether to build tests.

Power Supply Monitor and Util JSON config

Several applications in this repository require a PSU JSON config to run. The JSON config file provides information for:

  • Where to access the pmbus attributes
  • Which attribute file in pmbus maps to which property and interface in D-Bus
  • Which kernel device directory is used on which PSU

There is an example psu.json to describe the necessary configurations.

  • inventoryPMBusAccessType defines the pmbus access type, which tells the service which sysfs type to use to read the attributes. The possible values are:
    • Base: The base dir, e.g. /sys/bus/i2c/devices/3-0069/
    • Hwmon: The hwmon dir, e.g. /sys/bus/i2c/devices/3-0069/hwmon/hwmonX/
    • Debug: The pmbus debug dir, e.g. /sys/kernel/debug/pmbus/hwmonX/
    • DeviceDebug: The device debug dir, e.g. '/sys/kernel/debug/./`
    • HwmonDeviceDebug: The hwmon device debug dir, e.g. /sys/kernel/debug/pmbus/hwmonX/cffps1/
  • fruConfigs defines the mapping between the attribute file and the FRU inventory interface and property. The configuration example below indicates that the service will read part_number attribute file from a directory specified by the above pmbus access type, and assign to PartNumber property in xyz.openbmc_project.Inventory.Decorator.Asset interface.
      "fruConfigs": [
        {
          "propertyName": "PartNumber",
          "fileName": "part_number",
          "interface": "xyz.openbmc_project.Inventory.Decorator.Asset"
        }
      ]
    
  • psuDevices defines the kernel device dir for each PSU in inventory. The configuration example below indicates that powersupply0's device is located in /sys/bus/i2c/devices/3-0069.
      "psuDevices": {
        "/xyz/openbmc_project/inventory/system/chassis/motherboard/powersupply0" : "/sys/bus/i2c/devices/3-0069",
      }
