Intel Intel NetStructure Single Board Computer, MPCBL0010 manual Ipmc Firmware Code

MPCBL0010 SBC—Hardware Management Overview

FRU information in the MPCBL0010 SBC includes data describing the MPCBL0010 SBC board as specified in the PICMG 3.0 requirements. Additional multi-records are added for the BIOS to write CPU information, and the BIOS version number to FRU data correctly. This information is retrieved by the shelf manager (AdvancedTCA ShMC), enabling reporting of board-specific information through an out-of-band mechanism.

Below is example of MPCBL0010 SBC FRU information as reported by the Intel CMM:

10.14IPMC Firmware Code

IPMC firmware code is organized into boot code and operational code, both of which are stored in a flash module. Upon an IPMC reset, the IPMC executes the boot code and does the following:

1.Performs self tests to verify the status of its hardware and memory

2.Sets up the internal real-time operating system (RTOS)

3.Performs a checksum of the operational code
