Tioga Pass OpenBMC 2.8

[Neil Bradley]

Thanks Vijay – we tried it with the 2.9-dev release and the GPIO. We’ll go that route.

As an aside, is there a quick/easy way to enable the i210 NCSI connection on the baseboard and the second port on the mezzanine card? I’m new to OpenBMC so sorry if this is a basic/simple Linux question.

Appreciate the help very much!

-->Neil

No, you can say that power control for tiogapass was available from kernel 5.7 only.

Does this mean the official 2.8 release was broken in this regard? We aren’t using the latest & greatest, but it’s worth a shot. Will do tomorrow!

Neil,
This means that power control application is not running. An I know why because we need kernel device tree from 5.7+ kernel to support proper gpio pins addition in device  tree.

So please download latest openbmc image, your all problem for ipmb and power control will be resolved.

Regards
-Vijay

A bit more info – does this mean the dbus interface for chassis control is missing?
