[phosphor-state-manager] Error reading HostFirmware condition, error: sd_bus_call: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown

Tue Apr 19 13:08:50 AEST 2022

Hi Jordan,
According your busctl test command that you can get CurrentFirmwareCondition property currently.
Here, the service is xyz.openbmc_project.State.HostCondition.Gpio and path is /xyz/openbmc_project/Gpios/host0.

root at siad:~# busctl get-property xyz.openbmc_project.State.HostCondition.Gpio   /xyz/openbmc_project/Gpios/host0  xyz.openbmc_project.Condition.HostFirmware  CurrentFirmwareCondition
s "xyz.openbmc_project.Condition.HostFirmware.FirmwareCondition.Running"

However, your error log seems using wrong service and path to get this CurrentFirmwareCondition property.

Apr 18 08:19:24 siad phosphor-host-state-manager[366]: Ufi: services=xyz.openbmc_project.Control.Host

If you change path and services as your busctl test command that might be fixed your issue.
Hopefully, I didn’t misunderstand your question. Thanks.

Best regards,
Tim

Subject: [phosphor-state-manager] Error reading HostFirmware condition, error: sd_bus_call: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown

Hi Sir/Madam,
I am implementing the power control mechanisms for my platform, and encounter the problem in below:
phosphor-host-state-manager[341]: Error reading HostFirmware condition, error: sd_bus_call: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name is not activatable, service: xyz.openbmc_project.Control.Host path: /xyz/openbmc_project/control/host0

I am using the host0-ready gpio pin to determine the HostFirmwareCondition is running or not. However, the service xyz.openbmc_project.State.Host.HostState could not be established since the dbus call method of  xyz.openbmc_project.Control.Host returns an error. Therefore, I have printed some debug messages starting with Ufi to ensure the xyz.openbmc_project.State.HostCondition.Gpio service is involved in phosphor-host-state-manager. Not sure why the bus call function of xyz.openbmc_project.Control.Host service failed. Which packages or settings should I configure to enable this service?  Could someone give me some instructions or suggestions? Thank you!
