The IPMI host interface - driver ("ipmi-si") needs to be loaded for this driver to do anything. - Prefix: 'ibmaem' - Datasheet: Not available - -Author: Darrick J. Wong - -Description ------------ - -This driver implements sensor reading support for the energy and power meters -available on various IBM System X hardware through the BMC. All sensor banks -will be exported as platform devices; this driver can talk to both v1 and v2 -interfaces. This driver is completely separate from the older ibmpex driver. - -The v1 AEM interface has a simple set of features to monitor energy use. There -is a register that displays an estimate of raw energy consumption since the -last BMC reset, and a power sensor that returns average power use over a -configurable interval. - -The v2 AEM interface is a bit more sophisticated, being able to present a wider -range of energy and power use registers, the power cap as set by the AEM -software, and temperature sensors. - -Special Features ----------------- - -The "power_cap" value displays the current system power cap, as set by the AEM -software. Setting the power cap from the host is not currently supported. |
