ipmi_sim_cmd(5)           IPMI LAN Simulator commands          ipmi_sim_cmd(5)

DESCRIPTION
       The  ipmi_sim  emulation  is  set up using these commands.  They can be
       read from a command file, run from the command line, or executed inside
       the simulator after it is started.

       This  may be a little confusing, but the network interfaces are config-
       ured by the ipmi_lan configuration file,  and  the  various  management
       controllers,  sensors,  etc. are specified using this file.  Plus, this
       can be used to configure the simulator after it is up, set sensor  val-
       ues, inject events, and things of that nature.

GENERAL COMMANDS
       Blank lines and lines starting with `#' are ignored.  Long lines may be
       broken up by putting a '' at the end of the line to be continued.

       quit   Exit the simulator

       include "file"
              Include the given file.

       define name "value"

              Define the given name as a variable with the given value.   This
              variable  may be used later by doing $name.  This cannot be used
              in quotes, but quotes may be broken up and the variable put  be-
              tween them.  For instance, if you say:

              define MCNUM "40"

              you can use it later as in

              mc_add $MCNUM 1 no-device-sdrs 00  00  00  0xc9  0x009000 0x0002

              or

              sensor_add    $MCNUM    0    21   12   0x6f   poll   1000   file
              "/sys/dev/sens1-"$MCNUM"-1"

       sleep time
              Pause the command interface for the  given  number  of  seconds.
              This does not affect the execution of the simulator.

       debug options
              Set the debugging output.  Valid options are:

              msg Dump messages.

              raw Dump raw I/O

              Entering nothing turns of debugging.

       read_cmds filename
              Execute the commands in the given file.

MC COMMANDS
       mc_add IPMBAddress DeviceID HasDeviceSDRs DeviceRevision MajorFWRev Mi-
       norFWRev DeviceSupport ManufacturerID ProductID
              Add an MC to the simulator.  All values are hexadecimal.   These
              are  mostly  values  for  the ``Get Device ID'' command, see the
              spec for details.  Note that the MC is not enabled  after  being
              added, you must add it.

              Note  that  some of these values control the capabilities of the
              MC.  For instance, HasDeviceSDRs sets whether device SDR reposi-
              tory commands will work.

              You may use has-device-sdrs or no-device-sdrs in the HasDeviceS-
              DRs field.

       mc_add_fru_data mc-addr DeviceID FRUSize (data [byte1 [byte2 [...]]]  |
       file offset filename)
              Set the FRU data for a given MC and device id.  Data may be sup-
              plied directly here, or it may be given as a file.   The  offset
              is  the  start  from the beginning of the file where the data is
              kept.

       mc_dump_fru_data mc-addr DeviceID
              Dump the FRU data for a given MC and device id.

       mc_delete mc-addr
              Remove the MC from the system.

       mc_disable mc-addr
              Disable the MC, but don't remove it.

       mc_enable mc-addr
              Enable the given MC.

       mc_setbmc mc-addr
              Set the BMC's address.

       mc_set_guid mc-addr guid
              Set the GUID value.  The guid may be a string (in quotes)  or  a
              hexadecimal string.

       sel_enable mc-addr max-entries flags
              Enable  the  System  Event  Log on the given MC.  The flags is a
              byte this is returned from the ``Get SEL Info'' command; it con-
              trols various aspects of the SEL.  See the spec for details.

       sel_add mc-addr RecordType byte1 byte2 ... byte13
              Add an entry to the MC's SEL.

       main_sdr_add mc-addr byte1 [byte2 [...]]
              Add an entry to the main SDR of the MC.

       device_sdr_add mc-addr LUN byte1 [byte2 [...]]
              Add an entry to the device SDR of the MC.

SENSOR COMMANDS
       sensor_add  mc-addr LUN sensor-num sensor-type event-reading-code [poll
       poll_rate poll_type poll_type_options] [event-only]

              Add a sensor to the given MC and LUN.  The type of sensor is set
              by the event reading code.

              If  poll  is specified, then the sensor will be polled for data.
              Only the file poll type is currently supported.  The value is  a
              number  read from a file.  It has the following options, all op-
              tional:

              div=val will divide the read value by the given number.  This is
              done after the multiply operation.

              mult=val will multiply the read value by the given number.  This
              is done after the subtraction.

              sub=val will subtract the value by the given  number.   This  is
              done after the mask.

              mask=val will mask (bitwise and) the value by the given number.

              base=value Specify the base of the value read from the file.  By
              default this is zero, meaning "C" conventions are used.

              initstate=value sets what the event state is initially  set  to.
              This  is  useful for discrete sensors with bits that should nor-
              mally be set to "1", like a presence bit, to  keep  the  program
              from issuing an event every time the program starts.

              raw  specifies that the data from the file is a raw value.  Only
              length bytes are read from offset.

              ascii specifies that the data from the file is in  ASCII.   This
              is the default.  The offset value is used, but no the length.

              length=val  specifies  the  length  of the data to read from the
              file.  The maximum value is 4,and this  is  only  used  for  raw
              data.

              depends=<mc_addr>,<lun>,<sensor_number>,<bit>  specifies  a dis-
              crete sensor bit that must be set to 1 for the sensor to be  ac-
              tive.   Generally,  you use the presence bit of a sensor to mark
              whether other sensors on the device are actually present.   Each
              of  the  other  sensors  would have one of these pointing to the
              presence bit.

              event-only specifies that the sensor will not  be  readable,  it
              will only generate events (specified with a type 3 SDR).

       sensor_set_bit  mc-addr  LUN  sensor-num bit-to-set bit-value generate-
       event
              Set the given bit to bit-value (0 or 1) for the  sensor  by  bit
              number,  either  the threshold for analog or the discrete sensor
              bit.  If generate-event is non-zero and the  sensor  has  events
              enabled for that bit, then generate an event.

       sensor_set_bit_clr_rest  mc-addr  LUN  sensor-num  bit-to-set bit-value
       generate-event
              Like sensor_set_bit, but automatically clears all other bits.

       sensor_set_value mc-addr LUN sensor-num value generate-event
              Set the byte value for an analog sensor.  If the sensor  exceeds
              a  threshold,  the sensor has events enabled, and generate-event
              is non-zero, then generate an event for the condition.

       sensor_set_hysteresis mc-addr LUN sensor-num support positive negative
              Set the hysteresis capabilities of the sensor.  It  must  be  an
              analog  sensor.  The support value is the hysteresis capability,
              the same as the hysteresis support value in the sensor SDR.  The
              positive  and  negative  hysteresis  values are also set by this
              command.

              The support value may also be none, readable, settable, or fixed
              instead of the numbers.

       sensor_set_threshold  mc-addr  LUN sensor-num threshold-support thresh-
       old-enabled [value5 [value4 [... [value0]]]]

              Set the threshold support for a sensor.  It must  be  an  analog
              sensor.   The threshold-support value is the same as the thresh-
              old access support value in the sensor SDR.   The  threshold-en-
              abled  values is a string of ``0'' and ``1'' characters that en-
              able the 6 corresponding  thresholds;  the  rightmost  value  is
              value  0,  the  leftmost  is value 5.  Optionally, the threshold
              values may be specified as their byte values.

              The threshold-support value may also  be  none,  readable,  set-
              table,  or fixed to make it a bit more readable.  The thresholds
              are:

              0 - lower non critical

              1 - lower critical

              2 - lower non recoverable

              3 - upper non critical

              4 - upper critical

              5 - upper non recoverable

       sensor_set_event_support mc-addr LUN sensor-num events-enable  scanning
       event-support  assert-support deassert-support assert-enabled deassert-
       enabled

              Set the event support of a sensor.  The events-enable  will  en-
              able global events on the sensor if non-zero, otherwise they are
              disabled.  The scanning values set the scanning  value  for  the
              sensor.   The event-support value sets the event capabilities in
              the sensor, this is the same as the ``sensor event message  con-
              trol support'' value in the sensor SDR.  The assert-support, de-
              assert-support, assert-enabled,  and  deassert-enabled  are  all
              bitmasks (a string of ``0'' and ``1'' characters) that set their
              corresponding sensor bit's capability to generate  events  (sup-
              port) and whether it will generate events now (enabled).

              Note  that  all  bitmasks have the rightmost digit as the zeroth
              bit, and the leftmost digit as the highest order bit.  Note that
              you  must  specify  15  bits  here, even if you don't use all of
              them.

              Note that you may use enable or  disable  in  the  events-enable
              field,  and  you may use scanning or no-scanning in the scanning
              field.

              For event-support, you may use per-state, entire-sensor,  global
              or none instead of a number.

              For a threshold sensor, the values are:

              0
               - lower non-critical going low

              1
               - lower non-critical going high

              2
               - lower critical going low

              3
               - lower critical going high

              4
               - lower non-recoverable going low

              5
               - lower non-recoverable going high

              6
               - upper non-critical going low

              7
               - upper non-critical going high

              8
               - upper critical going low

              9
               - upper critical going high

              1
               - upper non-recoverable going low

              1
               - upper non-recoverable going high

              Note  that  the  "lower going high" and "upper going low" values
              are not supported, since they are simply stupid.

ATCA OEM COMMANDS
       These are for emulation of special ATCA capabilities.

       atca_enable
              The system is an ATCA system, enables the other  ATCA  capabili-
              ties.

              Note  that  you  should  do this *before* creating any MCs (this
              should really be first) because the MCs are set up a little dif-
              ferently  for ATCA mode.  This causes the MCs to be able to han-
              dle PICMG commands properly, sets up 2 LEDs by default, and  en-
              ables  proper hot-swap handling, including the blue LED.  By de-
              fault the blue LED supports local control and the other LEDs  do
              not and are red.

              In  ATCA  mode,  to drive the hot-swap state machine, you should
              use sensor_set_bit_clr_rest to set the hot-swap state.

       atca_set_site hardware-address site-type site-number
              Sets the given values for an ATCA system, the values returned by
              the get address commands.

       mc_set_num_leds mc-addr count
              Set the number of ATCA LEDs the MC has.

       mc_set_power mc-addr power gen-event
              Set  the ATCA power setting for the MC as its numeric value.  If
              gen-event is non-zero, generate an event for the change.
