Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are the normal usage for an OEM event. 37 You can fetch these events and use the sequence numbers to piece the 38 string together. 39 40config IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE 41 tristate 'Device interface for IPMI' 42 help 43 This provides an IOCTL interface to the IPMI message handler so 44 userland processes may use IPMI. It supports poll() and select(). 45 46config IPMI_SI 47 tristate 'IPMI System Interface handler' 48 help 49 Provides a driver for System Interfaces (KCS, SMIC, BT). 50 Currently, only KCS and SMIC are supported. If 51 you are using IPMI, you should probably say "y" here. 52 53config IPMI_WATCHDOG 54 tristate 'IPMI Watchdog Timer' 55 help 56 This enables the IPMI watchdog timer. 57 58config IPMI_POWEROFF 59 tristate 'IPMI Poweroff' 60 help 61 This enables a function to power off the system with IPMI if 62 the IPMI management controller is capable of this. 63 64endif # IPMI_HANDLER 65
