P9 onwards OPAL is building device tree for BMC based system using
HDAT. We are populating bmc/compatible node with bmc version. Hence
do not delete this property.

Stewart,

Can you take a look of this patch?

ast_bmc_fixup_bmc_sensors() does a few things, but I think I see what
you're getting at here; this change looks good to me.

However, we should probably validate that the generated DT actually
looks OK before we do a release with this patch (and thus releasing
those compatible strings into the wild). To help with that, could you
provide a sample of the generated tree?

Any changes there would be to separate code though, so:

Acked-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

Cheers,

Jeremy,

Please find the BMC section of device tree. Let me know if you need full dts output.

Thanks! What you've provided is sufficient.

That looks like a pretty strange compatible value; it should be in the
format <vendor>,<device>...

Do you know who manages those inputs on the HDAT side?

Cheers,

They use vendor,hwname,swname format.

Venkatesh (in CC) manages these data.

Jeremy ,

Can you Ack this patch as compatible property is not related to this patch?

If we really want to fix this then we have to ask HDAT folks to split above 
property to something like device and software. Alternatively we can fix it in 
OPAL as well.

Stewart,

Looks like this one is not yet merged. Can you please pull this patch?

This does get us properties like this though:
compatible       "ibm,ast2500,supermicro"
compatible       "ibm,ast2500,openbmc"

which... are certainly wrong. This is, however, what HDAT is giving us,
so arguably this is a HDAT bug.

In fact, this even violates the HDAT spec, which says:

P9 IBM systems with FSP: ibm,fsp2,fips
P9 IBM systems with BMC: ibm,ast2500,openbmc
P9 IBM systems with SuperMicro: supermicro,ast2500,aten

which is not what we get, we seem to always get what I pasted above (for
p9dsu and witherspoon respectively).

Soo... what should we do about that? While the second comma in the
compatible property is odd, it doesn't seem to violate the DT spec.


I'm okay with merging this as-is, as long as we fix up the oddities in a
subsequent patch though. So, it's in master as of

Yes. Fix should come from HDAT/xml.

Yes. This is wrong.

@Nagendra, Can you fix this one in HDAT/xml?

Yeah. But that's what we get.
