Fwd: Which repo is more stable, feature complete, most functionality? https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc or https://github.com/Intel-BMC/openbmc

[Alexander A. Filippov]

And by the way, the intel-bmc/openbmc does not build at the latest revision (commit 200ec68a685a48314076d82eb9af215ce256a02f).
The recipe for the phosphor-webui has a reference to a non existent revision in the intel-bmc/phosphor-webui repository.

James, I have to disagree.

The last time I tried (Mar 12, commit 276f647402), the openbmc/openbmc repo was still unable to control power of the host system on Wolfpass. That is why we're still using Intel-BMC/openbmc for our wolfpass-based board in development.

On the other hand, the Intel-BMC/openbmc repo lacks virtual media support.

We would love to use the main openbmc/openbmc for our x86 board but so far it just doesn't work.

Alexander.

Bruce,

The Intel-BMC/openbmc repo is where we (i.e., Intel) pushes our internal fork externally while in the process of upstreaming. The intent for this repo is for it to be functional on an Intel development platform (e.g., Wolfpass) at all times while upstreaming changes to the openbmc/openbmc repo. The long term goal is for Intel to be pushing all development upstream to the openbmc/openbmc repo, and using the Intel-BMC repository for sharing future capabilities that are not yet publically announced. Where our goal is to push our internal development fork to the Intel-BMC/openbmc repo every two weeks.

Two exceptions for upstreaming are the webui and linux kernel patches. Upstreaming the linux kernel patches is challenging and some of the patches may never make it upstream. With the migration of the webui to vue.js there's not much point in upstreaming the Intel fork of phosphor-webui.

My answer to your question is to use the openbmc/openbmc repository, but not for controlling your car brakes.

James.

While the WebUI for https://github.com/Intel-BMC/openbmc may look better,
presently its functionality for BMC operation seems intermittent compared to the functionality of https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc.
I am referring to basic things such as displaying the BMC's Firmware Version, the lack of displaying any NIC for Network Settings, the "hang" for Health Hardware Status.

This is not a request about ahead or behind; I am asking about stable, feature complete, most functionality.

Using a metaphor here; if you had to select today one of the 2 for controlling your car's breaks which would it be?

Thank you.
