As a hot-swappable field replaceable unit (FRU), the AM4010 follows the stringent carrier grade RASM feature set, namely - Reliability, Availability, Serviceability, Maintainability.

Built in accordance to the AMC.0 specification, the AM4010 is also AMC.1 and AMC.2 compliant and is easily managed via IPMI v1.5/v2.0.

As with every Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) the AM4010 is equipped with a Module Management Controller (MMC).

IPMI Firmware User Guide: AM4010

5. Introduction

5.1 IPMI in AdvancedMC / AdvancedTCA Environment

The Module Management Controller is a crucial component of any AMC module. Besides acting as a regular IPMI management controller (sensor monitoring, event logging, etc.), it also provides an interface to all necessary data related to module power requirements and implemented interfaces (E-Keying). Further, it plays an active role in the module hot swap state management. The carrier IPMI Controller (IPMC) communicates with the MMC using the local IPMB (IPMB-L) bus. In an ATCA/AMC environment, it is the IPMC that actually turns on/off module (payload) power. However, before the IPMC enables the module payload power, various criteria must be satisfied by both the carrier and the module, including power requirements and capabilities, matching interfaces, current module hot swap state, and any other special conditions as specified by the Shelf Manager policy.

5.2 The Module Management Controller Hardware

On the AM4010 module, the MMC is implemented using the Renesas H8S/2166 controller with 512 kB of internal flash and 40 kB of RAM. An additional 1 MB serial EEPROM chip provides redundant firmware image storage. A separate 32 kB serial EEPROM chip is used for firmware private data and 4 kB FRU Inventory storage.

The MMC circuit implements two local Keyboard Style Interfaces (KCS) with interrupt support for communication with system side management software and the IPMB-L bus for interconnection with the IPMC.

IPMI over LAN (IOL) is supported by two Ethernet channels. The MMC implements a wide range of sensors that permit the monitoring of:

• main power voltages: +12V (PWR), +5V, +3.3V, +3.3V (MP), +1.5V, +1.8V,

+0.9V (DDR)

• temperatures: CPU die, MCH die, board inlet and outlet near CPU, board inlet and

outlet near MCH

• Power Good, LAN links, IPMB link, NMI and SMI lines, board reset, post code,

boot error, processor hot (>100 °C), IPMB-L state, Health error, IPMI watchdog etc.

• firmware can be updated in the field (refer to 6.4.2)

• two firmware banks implemented, firmware bank management is done by the open

tool ipmitool (function fwum) [1] (refer to 6.4.1)

• downloading new firmware image does not break currently running firmware

activities (refer to 6.4.2).

• manual and automatic firmware image roll-back (in case of upgrade failure). Refer

to 6.4.2.

• firmware customizable per BIOS menu or per OEM IPMI commands (refer to 6.5)

• interoperable with other AMC, ATCA, or IPMI solutions

• OEM board supervision and control extensions such as firmware hub select and

boot order configuration (refer to 6.2.2)

• BIOS supervisor and automated switch to recover image from second firmware

hub (refer to 6.10)

• Serial over LAN (SOL, refer to 6.12.5) support

• IPMI over LAN (IOL, refer to 6.12.4) support

• Graceful shutdown support (refer to 6.11)

• “Health” LED shows heartbeat and pulses if a KCS interface is active. The “out-

of-service” (OOS) LED pulses when IPMB-L is active (refer to 7).

• If the carrier supplies an external clock 3 the module will use it. Otherwise the

module will use the internal PCIe clock (refer to 6.9).

6.2.2.5 OEM Module Quiescence Feedback

Overview

Please refer to 6.11, Hot Swap. If the OS doesn’t fully support ACPI this command provides support to control a graceful

shut down of the AM4010. There is a Graceful Reboot and Shutdown Daemon (grnsd) for Linux included in the newest Linux BSPs being offered by Kontron. It works as being described in the following (refer to “Usage for a self written shut down daemon” below).

If ACPI is fully supported this command can be used to set a timeout time for the case that the ACPI means (ACPI daemon etc.) are unable to shut down the system in time. As a default value at system start this time is set to 0 (endless wait).

Usage for a self written shut down daemon

This command normally is used by a shut down daemon in a non ACPI supporting software environment. If a timeout time has to be set to avoid an endless waiting for the sleep state the daemon calls this command after system start with the “set quiesce wait timeout” bit set and the “Quiesce wait timeout” time <> 0. Afterwards the daemon calls this command cyclically with the “OS daemon present” bit set. When the MMC gets a FRU Control (Quiesce) request from the carrier (e.g. during a Hot Swap sequence) it sets the “quie s c e r e q u est ( FR U C o n t r o l)” b i t in its command response. Afte r the daemon sees this bit set in the response it should shut down the system. After having set the “quiesce request (FRU Control)” bit the MMC starts the timeout timer (if a timeout time was defined) and monitors the sleep signal line to recognize the sleep state which should be caused by the shut down. When the MMC detects the sleep state (signal) or it receives a command with the “quiescence acknowledge” bit set or the tim e o u t t i m e r h a s e x p i r e d , t h e M M C sends a “Module Hot Swap event” message to the carrier, and in the following the payload power will be switched off.

If no daemon is announced as present

If no command call announces that a daemon is present, the MMC automatically uses the default timeout time 0 (endless wait) during the Hot Swap process. But if the timeout time was set to a value 1…255 by this time will be used in any case while waiting for the sleep state (signal).

b) No OS daemon is present (refer to bits above): This is the maximum time from the moment on that the MMC receives FRU Control (Quiesce) request until it sends back the appropriate Module Hot Swap event message. If sleep state is recognized before timeout then the Module Hot Swap event message will be sent immediately. If the time is set to 0 (default after reset) then the Module Hot Swap event message will only be sent after recognition of sleep state (signal).

6.3 Sensors Implemented on the AM4010

The MMC includes many sensors for voltage or temperature monitoring and various others for pass/fail type signal monitoring.

Every sensor is associated with a Sensor Data Record (SDR). Sensor Data Records contain information about the sensors identification such as sensor type, sensor name, sensor unit. SDRs also contain the configuration of a specific sensor such as threshold/hystheresis, event generation capabilities that specifies sensor behavior. Some field of the sensor SDR are configurable through IPMI v1.5 command and are set to built-in initial value. Finally one field which is the sensor owner must reflect the module addresses that allow the AMC Carrier to identify the owner of the SDR when it is scanned from the module management controller and merged within the AMC Carrier Device SDR repository.

From IPMI perspective, the MMC is set up as a satellite management controller (SMC). It does support sensor devices, and uses the IPMI static sensor population feature of IPMI v1.5. All SDRs can be queried using Device SDR commands to the MMC.

The sensor name in its SDR has a name prefix which after module insertion is automatically adapted to the physical position of the module in a carrier or in a µTCA chassis. The format of this prefix is

• in AMC bay 1…8 or µTCA slot 1…8: ‘A1:’, ‘A2:’, ‘A3:’, ‘A4:’, ‘B1:’, ‘B2:’, ‘B3:’,

‘B4:’.

• in µTCA slot 9…12: ‘R9:’, ‘Ra:’, ‘Rb:’, ‘Rc:’. Please note that in the case that the module is installed elsewhere, then the IPMB-L address of

the module is unknown and the interface is off.

Module sensors that have been implemented are listed in the sensor list below.

6.4 Firmware Code

6.4.1 Structure and functionality

MMC firmware code is organized into boot code and operational code, both of which are stored in a flash module. Upon an MMC reset, the MMC executes the boot code and performs the following: 1- Self test to verify the status of its hardware and memory. 2- Performs a checksum of the operational code. 3- Communicates with the Firmware Upgrade Manager (FWUM) in order to inform the MC watchdog that the actual MMC firmware is suitable for execution. Upon successful verification of the operational code checksum, the firmware will jump to the operational code.

Operational code is upgradeable in-the-field.

6.4.2 Firmware Upgrade

The standard way to upgrade the MMC’s operational code is to use the open tool ‘ipmitool’ [1] together with an image file. Ipmitool allows the downloading (‘ipmitool download …’) and activation (‘ipmitool upgrade’) of the new operational code and saves an existing one. The rollback to the formerly running operational code is possible as well (‘ipmitool rollback’)..

All IPMI interfaces which are offered by ipmitool are usable (KCS interface, IPMB bus, LAN). This allows local upgrade or remote upgrade.

Files which contain an image of operational code have the module type (AM4010) and the string “FWUM” in its name.

During the download process the currently running operational code operates as usual until the upgrade command is issued. During the upgrade process the MMC is off line for about 45 seconds when the boot code is re-organizing the firmware storage and afterwards starts the new operational code. If this doesn’t succeed after a time out the boot code performs an automatic rollback to the last working operational code.

6.5 Firmware Configuration

For software that uses the local KCS connection to the MMC, it may be may be more favorable to set up interrupt based KCS communications. This may help to speed up data exchange via KCS considerably. By default, the MMC does not generate interrupts to the local CPU at all. The best way to change this is to use the IPMI menu in BIOS (Advanced -> IPMI 1.5 Configuration -> KCS-SMS IRQ). Possible options are: IRQ10, IRQ11 or disabled (default setting).

Another method of interrupt configuration is to do it ‘manually’ executing an ‘OEM Set Firmware Parameters Command’ (refer to 6.2.2.2, Set Firmware Parameters.

It is strongly recommended to make changes in this area with the help of the BIOS. The BIOS code creates an ‘IPMI Device Information Record (Type 38h)’ entry in the SMBIOS Table. The information provided there includes: IPMI specification revision (v1.5), type of supported interface (KCS), its base address (CA2h) and interrupt number for it (10, 11 or none), and the IPMB address of the controller (depending on the module slot/bay). Some of this information may be needed by software drivers or applications, for example the Linux OpenIPMI driver looks for the SMBIOS IPMI entry while detecting system interfaces and it

Page 28

IPMI Firmware User Guide: AM4010

does make usage of the interrupt number provided there. Making changes ‘manually’ leaves SMBIOS IPMI entry with not-up-to-date values until next reboot.

6.6 Firmware / Module Identification

There are two ways to determine via IPMI that a MMC resides on an AM4010.

1. The response on the IPMI command “Get Device ID” offers among others the the

following response data:

• Manufacturer ID = 3A98h (Kontron IANA ID)

• Device ID = 04h (H8S2166)

• Product ID = 4010

• Firmware Revision - depends on running firmware.

2. The Device ID String which can be found by reading the the Management Controller

Device Locator Record (SDR Type 12h) contains the string “AM4010”. For a module being placed in bay B3 the Device ID String will be “B3: AM4010”.

6.7 FRU Information

6.7.1 Structure and functionality

The MMC provides 4 kB non-volatile storage space for FRU information. Some of the data stored there, like Module Current Requirements record or E-Keying information (refer to AMC.0 specification for details), are mandatory for module functionality in the ATCA/AMC environment. Refer to [2] Platform Management FRU Information Storage Definition document for details).

Please note that missing FRU information will prevent the AMC module from being accepted by the carrier controller during the Hot Swap process and the module will get no payload power.

Full low level access to read or write a module’s FRU Information is provided by regular IPMI FRU Device commands. Please be careful when writing FRU information directly using standard IPMI commands. Damaging the FRU Information may lead to a non working payload.

To avoid this danger there exists a Kontron Linux tool ‘frum’ (refer to section 12.2), which allows to display and partially modify FRU data. E.g. the ‘frum’ tool makes it easy to modify Product Info Area fields (like Product Version or Product Serial Number).

6.7.2 Download

Normally the user needs not download the FRU information because the module is shipped with the data which describes best the module capabilities and requirements. Remember that FRU information might be damaged by a write access to the IPMI FRU Device using standard IPMI commands.

Page 29

IPMI Firmware User Guide: AM4010

If needed the standard way to download FRU information to the module is to use the open tool ‘ipmitool’ [1] for the download of an image file. Ipmitool allows the downloading (‘ipmitool fru write …’). The rollback to the formerly running operational code is possible as well (‘ipmitool rollback’).

All IPMI interfaces which are offered by ipmitool are usable (KCS interface, IPMB bus, LAN). This allows local upgrade or remote upgrade. Note that the KCS interface is only usable on a powered payload.

6.8 E-Keying

E-Keying has been defined in the AMC.0 R1.0 Specification to prevent module damage, prevent misoperation, and verify bay connection compatibility. The FRU data contains the AMC point-to-point connectivity record as described in Section 3.9.2 of the AMC.0 R1.0 specification. The Set/Get AMC Port State IPMI commands defined by the AMC.0 specification are used by the carrier for either granting or rejecting the E-keys.

6.9 PCI Express Clock Source

The PCI-E reference clock may be generated locally by the module (default configuration) or acquired via the AMC connector (common/external reference clock). The standard FRU EKeying data for the AM4010 contains an AMC Link Descriptor for the PCI-E clock. If an external clock is available the carrier’s IPMC provides it by a “Set AMC Port State” command. The appropriate control signal is latched by the on-board FPGA during payload power on and cannot be changed until payload power off.

The common reference clock provided by the carrier may be slightly modulated (Spread Spectrum Clock - SSC). Standard FRU E-Keying data for AM4010 contains two AMC Link Descriptors for the PCI-E channel, describing how the module works with non-SSC or with SSC. The carrier’s IPMC makes this selection during E-keying by “Set AMC Port State” commands“. The clock selection will be latched by the on-board FPGA during payload power on and can’t be changed until payload power off.

6.10 BIOS Supervisory and Automated Firmware Hub Switch

After each payload reset, the MMC expects a special message from the BIOS i.e. the BIOS checksum report. If the checksum (computed by the BIOS boot block) is incorrect or the message itself is not available within 15 seconds after payload reset, then the currently used firmware hub is assumed to contain an invalid or a corrupted BIOS image. In this case an automatic switch to another firmware hub is done and another reset is initiated and the “Boot Error (Invalid boot sector) event” for the failing firmware hub is generated. Refer to 6.3.1, sensors ‘FWHx Boot Err’. x = 0..1 .

6.11 Hot Swap

As a hot-swappable field replaceable unit (FRU), the AM4010 also follows the same stringent carrier grade RASM feature set, namely - Reliability, Availability, Serviceability, Maintainability. When offered in combination with AdvancedTCA platforms, TEM (Telecom Equipment Manufacturers) clients literally conserve valuable system AdvancedTCA system slots. The AM010 supports Full Hot Swap capability as per PICMG 3.0. It can be removed from or installed in the system while it is on (without powering-down the system). Please refer to the PICMG 3.0 specification for additional details.

Page 30

IPMI Firmware User Guide: AM4010

During Hot Swap of a working module the payload side has to be shut down automatically on command of the MMC and the end of shut down has to be signalled back to the MMC. Because the AM4010 supports ACPI, an OS on payload side which supports this too makes shut down very easy. If the OS doesn’t support ACPI there is a special method to be used.

Method 1. The payload OS supports ACPI

Requirements:

• ACPI support must be enabled in the BIOS menu.

• The ACPI daemon must be active.

• An ACPI power button event must result in a sleep state.

Part of the Hot Swap 0peration sequence to be processed by MMC and OS:

• On command of the carrier controller the MMC simulates the pressing and release of

the “power button” to force an ACPI event.

• The ACPI daemon detects this ACPI event and initiates the shut down of the payload

software system.

• At the end of shut down the payload hardware system reports the sleep state to the

MMC by setting the appropriate signal line.

• The MMC detects the sleep state and reports this to the carrier controller so that the

Hot Swap processing can be continued and finished. By default the MMC waits endless for the sleep state. If an endless wait shall be avoided in each case it is possible to set a timeout time after which the system will be switched off unconditionally. For the setting of the timeout refer to 6.2.2.5, OEM Module Quiescence

Feedback.

Method 2. The payload OS does not support ACPI

Requirements:

• At system start on payload side the Kontron shutdown daemon ‘grnsd’ has to be

started. It is included in the Linux board support packages for the AM4010 (refer to

[3]). This daemon communicates cyclically with the MMC for the exchange of states,

commands and acknowledges. For this it uses the “OEM Module Quiescence

Feedback” command. Refer to 6.2.2.5. In principle it plays the same role as the ACPI

daemon of method 1, above.

Part of the Hot Swap 0peration sequence to be processed by MMC and OS:

• On command of the carrier controller the MMC sets a “shut down request” flag.

• The grnsd daemon recognizes this request in the response to its cyclical “OEM

Module Quiescence Feedback” command and initiates the shut down of the payload

software system.

• At the end of the shut down process the grnsd daemon informs the MMC by setting

the appropriate flag when calling the “OEM Module Quiescence Feedback” command.

• The MMC reports this to the carrier controller so that the Hot Swap processing can be

continued and finished. By default the MMC waits endless for this information. If an endless wait shall be avoided in each case it is possible to set a timeout time after which the system will be switched off unconditionally. For the setting of the timeout refer to 6.2.2.5, OEM Module Quiescence

Feedback.

6.12 LAN functions

6.12.1 Overview

The two Ethernet channels which reside on port 0 (channel 0) and port 1 (channel 1) at the AMC Fabric Interface can – in parallel to their ‘normal’ use - be used for the following special purposes:

• IPMI over LAN (IOL)

• Serial over LAN

Common for both kinds of communication is the use of the RMCP/RMCP+ for the packing of the data to be transferred. On Ethernet the port 623 is used for transfers with this protocol.

While IOL serves to transport IPMI commands and their responses the SOL serves to transport any serial data. In each case the MMC serves as a protocol encoder and decoder. Please note that IOL is able to use both RMCP and RMCP+ protocols. SOL works only with the RMCP+ protocol.

6.12.2 Setting up the Ethernet channel

There are two methods to prepare the MMC’s SOL and IOL LAN parameters for the two possible Ethernet channels:

• During the BIOS setup

• By use of the open tool ‘ipmitool’ or IPMI commands

The setup methods are compatible i.e. both methods show the parameters which are set by the other one.

The setup is separate for both channels. When the MAC addresses are set the ones which are programmed into the hardware have to be re-used. This is a restriction. The IP addresses being used by ‘normal’ payload use and IOL/SOL use may differ but need not differ as long as the RMCP port 623 is not used in parallel.

6.12.2.1 Setup by BIOS menu

The BIOS setup menu “Advanced>IPMI 1.5 Configuration>Set LAN Configuration” offers the setting of some LAN parameters for both channels (1, 2). After this setup IOL is not yet ready for use. Refer to 6.12.2.2, Setup by ipmitool or IPMI commands.

6.12.2.2 Setup by ipmitool or IPMI commands

The open tool ipmitool offers commands for the setup of the two Ethernet channels. All possible options are showed by issuing

ipmitool lan set If ipmitool is not usable the LAN parameters can be set by using the generic IPMI commands

which are defined for this. To enable the LAN support after parameter setup this command has to be issued:

ipmitool lan set access on

6.12.3 Setup of user and password

The open tool ipmitool offers commands for the listing and manipulation of user accounts for channel 1 and 2. An overview can be obtained by putting in

Page 32

IPMI Firmware User Guide: AM4010

Ipmitool user The predefined users for a channel can be listed by the command Ipmitool user <channel 1, 2>. The AM4010 has for every channel these predefinitions in non volatile memory:

ID Name Callin Link Auth IPMI Msg Channel Priv Limit 1 false true true USER 2 admin false true true ADMINISTRATOR

Please note that admin’s password is preset with ‘kontron’. Changed users and passwords stay valid after payload power off.

6.12.4 IPMI over LAN (IOL)

IPMI over LAN is used for to communicate with an IPMI controller as e.g. the AM4010’s MMC via LAN using the RMCP or RMCP+ protocol. The data which is transferred are IPMI commands and the responses to them.

The open tool ‘ipmitool’ can serve as a control program and user interface for this. ipmitool allows to issue generic IPMI commands as e.g.:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.3.189 -U admin -P admin raw 6 1 or to call complex functions like ‘mc .info’: ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.3.189 -U admin -P admin mc info This uses many generic IPMI commands to get all needed information.

6.12.5 Serial over LAN (SOL)

Serial over LAN connects the COM1 or /dev/ttyS0 respectively of the AM4010’s payload side to an Ethernet channel. The MMC resides between this serial interface and one of the Ethernet channels. It serves as an encoder and a decoder for the used RMCP+ protocol and controls the data stream. Outside the AM4010 e.g. the open tool ipmitool can be used to drive the SOL session i.e. it offers a console function to communicate via Ethernet with the AM4010’s serial interface.

The serial interface can be used as a connection to

1) a user program on the AM4010 payload

2) the BIOS console redirection function. Refer to the BIOS setup menu

“Advanced>Console Redirection”. There the serial parameters for this purpose can be set. Please note that after BIOS start, the OS gets active in most cases (except e.g. DOS) and the console redirection stops working because the OS doesn’t use BIOS functions to drive the console.

3) a Linux login console. This can be activated after payload start e.g. by the command

getty –h 115200 /dev/ttyS0

4) etc.

SOL supports and requires serial hardware handshake. This should be activated for the serial port. Otherwise transmitted data might get lost. In any case the same serial parameters for the used payload side serial interface and the MMC’s serial interface have to be used. The parameters for the MMC’s serial interface can be set by the “ipmitool sol set …” command. Calling “ipmitool sol set” shows all options that can be set.

Other commands which are possible are showed when issuing “ipmitool sol help”.

6.13 OS Support / Tools

6.13.1 DOS

There is a low-level DOS command line tool provided by Intel that allows hex-formatted IPMI commands to be sent to the management controller via KCS interface. The IPMI Command Test Tool can be found at: http://www.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/tools.htm

6.13.2 Linux

Normally all drivers and kernel modules needed for communication between the payload sided software and the MMC firmware via the KCS interface come with the distribution. Newest sources can be downloaded from http://openipmi.sourceforge.net downloaded the OpenIPMI project as well. The OpenIPMI library package includes some applications and the needed libraries. One of the applications is ‘ipmicmd’ which makes it possible to send and receive raw IPMI sequences; another, the ‘ipmi_ui’, provides a higher level interface and thus it does not require deep IPMI knowledge from the user side.

Another very useful all-in-one tool is the ipmitool ( http://ipmitool.sourceforge.net ). It provides a user friendly interface to many IPMI features and extensions, for example to PICMG LED control and Kontron FWUM.

. There may be

There is a Kontron Modular Computers’ IPMI ToolKit which contains some tools for the customer for the monitoring and the maintenance of some IPMI functionalities.

The following command line tools are included in the IPMI ToolKit:

• frum: display and modification of FRU data

• temptool: selection, display, and storage of temperature and voltage sensor values

All these tools are OpenIPMI based. This toolkit is available on the “AMC Kit CD”. If this CD was not shipped with your module then please contact our support ( support@kontron-
