asrock rack layer

[Brad Bishop]

Hi Ed

The folks at ASRock Rack are looking to get a layer added to OpenBMC.  
You already started this here:

https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/c/openbmc/openbmc/+/40463

You mentioned the device tree needs to be upstreamed - is that the only 
remaining work item?

ASRock Rack team - if you have any questions about how to help Ed (or 
even take over the patch) please ask here - we are here to help!

thx - brad

From a conversation with the asrock support folks it sounded like
there wasn't interest in OpenBMC, so I'm glad to hear I was ill
informed.

The device tree really needs filled out better, which is what I was
stalling on.  I was having some trouble figuring out some of the
device mappings without schematics, so that would probably be the next
work item.

I was also planning on making it entity-manager enabled;  I'm assuming
the Asrock team is ok with that (as opposed to phosphor-hwmon based)?

I also based it on a UBI image, which isn't very standard;  I'm
guessing we'll want to adjust it to use a more common image layout.

Hi Ed,

Nice to know you!

It seems X570D4U is not submitted by our team...
https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/c/openbmc/openbmc/+/40463

Just curious, the developers listed in schedule A are Jeff and Leo, can someone else make contribution for ASRock Rack too?

Jeff Chan: Jeff9_Chan@asrockrack.com
Leo Chang: Leo2_Chang@asrockrack.com

Thank you,

Charlotte

Hi Charlotte

I can understand the confusion, but meta layers hosted in the OpenBMC 
GitHub organization (github.com/openbmc) are *not* owned by the vendors 
they are named after - they are owned by the entire OpenBMC community.  
So to answer your question - yes, anyone can make a contribution to 
meta-asrockrack.

thx - brad
