2022-04-20meta-phosphor: disable phosphor-dbus-monitor by defaultPatrick Williams1-0/+2
phosphor-dbus-monitor still uses autoconf and has a hard dependency on phosphor-snmp, causing phosphor-snmp to be brought in on systems that have no interest in using SNMP. The vast majority of systems do not supply any config for phosphor-dbus-monitor, so the usage of it does not seem wide enough to enable the IMAGE_FEATURE by default. - Remove 'obmc-dbus-monitor' from IMAGE_FEATURE by default. - Clean up all systems that manually remove the dbus-monitor feature or package. - Explicitly add the 'obmc-dbus-monitor' to the following systems: - meta-ibm: all - meta-inspur: fp5280g2 - meta-quanta: s6q Signed-off-by: Patrick Williams <patrick@stwcx.xyz> Change-Id: Iad6c4104466e21d1b9843dac964a634019eb6935

2022-03-11meta-ibm: set critical services for IBM systemsAndrew Geissler2-0/+54
This takes the default critical services list from meta-phosphor and appends on extra services IBM is interested in. Ideally, there would be an easy way to just append an extra file to the command line but this is going to need some more thought. For now, just override the entire file. Tested: - Booted witherspoon up in QEMU and verified new json file was loaded and that stopping one of the new critical services resulted in a dump, error log, and BMC Quiesced state.

2022-02-23meta-ibm: p10bmc: Add opkg to RDEPENDS:${PN}-extrasAndrew Jeffery2-1/+3
Providing `opkg` in the image allows us to easily install packages after-the-fact, usually to debug systems in the lab. This is not a mechanism for providing firmware updates. No specific configuration is supplied to enable its use, and hosting of package archives is left as an exercise to the user. That said, bitbake generates its own package archive in the course of creating the output image. It also provides a `package-index` target, which after execution, allows you to expose the archive with no more work than: ``` $ python3 -m http.server --directory tmp/deploy/ipk 8080` ``` The addition of opkg with the chosen options increases the uncompressed filesystem size by 3855360 bytes (~3.68MiB).

2022-02-18treewide: fix append/remove directivesPatrick Williams4-21/+21
As mentioned by I970e06ca6f9d0a9792af122eb25da1bb9a06f058, append and remove directives with '+=' are no longer valid Yocto syntax and raise a warning. See https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/documentation/migration-guides/migration-3.5.rst#n40 One interesting caveat has to do with the difference between "append" and "+=". foo:append = "a" foo:append = "b" Results in `foo = "ab"`, but foo += "a" foo += "b" Results in `foo = "a b"`. When `:append +=` is used it has behavior like the `+=` operator. Therefore, in some cases we need to insert additional whitespace after the `:append = "` to ensure concatenation behaves as expected. I've manually reviewed the results to ensure there is no ill side-effects from an additional space potentially being added. Fix up the entire tree with the following one-liner (and similar for `remove`): git ls-files -- ':!:poky/**' ':!:meta-security/**' \ ':!:meta-raspberrypi/**' ':!:meta-openembedded/**' \ | grep "\.bb" | xargs grep -l ":append.*+=" \ | xargs sed -i 's/:append\(.*\)+=\([^"]*\)" */:append\1=\2" /' or ... | xargs grep -l ":remove.*+=" \ | xargs sed -i "s/:remove\(.*\)+=/:remove\1=/" Signed-off-by: Patrick Williams <patrick@stwcx.xyz> Change-Id: Iea6235e7c76e252f4d473652957c2925f6b8845a

2022-01-19meta-ibm: Manually magic close the fan watchdogMatt Spinler1-0/+1
To support the watchdog application being able to restart after expiring the watchdog (by being killed) multiple times per BMC reboot, a manual magic close must be issued by writing a 'V' into the watchdog device before starting the watchdog. Without that, the underlying hardware watchdog wouldn't actually start running when the watchdog app was started again, such as on the next boot. Most watchdogs simply reboot the system upon expiration, but in this case it's being used to trip a GPIO that the fan hardware latches on to go to full speed so must support being restarted multiple times. The busybox watchdog application used to support this, but it was removed since it apparently caused some undesireable print statements from the kernel on other platforms. An alternative may be to fix this in the ASPEED watchdog driver, though I'm not sure what all that would entail or if it even makes sense. Tested: Expire and start the watchdog multiple times and the fans now go to full speed each time the watchdog expires, unlike before.
