ipmi
— Intelligent
Platform Management Interface driver
ipmi0 at mainbus?
The ipmi
device driver supports
motherboards implementing the Intelligent Platform Management Interface
version 1.5 or 2.0, and exports sensors and the watchdog through the
envsys(4) interface.
The ipmi
driver is able to send events to
powerd(8) when a sensor's
state has changed. Intrusion sensors will send a critical
event when state is not ok. Power Supply sensors will send a
critical event when the Power Supply unit is not installed
and warning-over when the Power Supply unit is installed
but not powered on. Fan, temperature and voltage sensors will send
critical-over
or
critical-under
when the value is very critical, or warning-over or
warning-under
if it's in a warning alert.
The ipmi
driver first appeared in
OpenBSD 3.9 and was then ported to
NetBSD 4.0.
The ipmi
driver was originally written by
Jordan Hargrave and was ported to
NetBSD by Manuel Bouyer
