Intel-BMC: Fan control

[Vijay Khemka]

I can’t comment for Intel-bmc but in openbmc, entity manager supports for phosphor-fan-control and yaml config is not required if there is EM config available.

No, phosphor-fan-control is currently driven by yaml configs at build time. There is work slated to enable use of runtime json configs for phosphor-fan-control.

I believe entity-manager can be used to provide config data to the phosphor-pid-control fan control application though.

Fan control related question for Intel-BMC: Do the entity-manager tachs, PWMs, and zones inform phosphor-fan-control? Or is phosphor-fan-control driven purely from the yaml configurations at build time?
