Team,

Saw above agenda mentioning “OpenBMC Hackathon” and wondering any further details on who from this team is planning to attend.

Thanks,
Sai.

Hey Sai, looks like Stewart, Joel, Jeremy, and myself will all be attending.

We're just building the agenda now but we were thinking some basic
overviews, then some kernel hacking, SDK/QEMU hacking (systemd,
journald, service intros), and some customization hacking (adding new
machine layer, customizing web UI for your system).  Any other
thoughts/ideas from the group appreciated.  The overall goal is to
teach people unfamiliar with openbmc how to dive in and start hacking
at it. The OpenBMC community hackathon will be at the Intel summit
middle of next month up in Oregon.

Yeah, be great to see you there.

I've started the series of doc updates in
https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/openbmc/docs/+/12994

Feedback always welcome. The goal is to have small tutorials that
people can follow to get up
and going with OpenBMC development.  We'll be walking through these
with people at the upcoming summit.

Future docs I'm thinking are:
- Adding a new systems (bitbake layer, kernel changes)
- Systemd phosphor service manipulation and usage
- Debugging
- Maybe taking someone through the process of a gerrit commit, don't
want to be redundant with our existing doc though

I'm trying to point to existing README and other docs as appropriate
to avoid redundancy.

Thanks Andrew! Love this great effort to onboard new engineers to the community!!

OpenBMC on OCP Leopard server

[Jean-Marie Verdun]

Hi,

OCP Leopard servers comes with an ASPeed Chip 1250, and doesn't seems to
be supported with OpenBMC (I might be totally wrong but I didn't found
any recipes within the source tree for that platform). So is there any
specific reasons over perhaps community interest of why this machine is
not supported ?

A guy involved in the linuxboot development team has created a funny for
of the project based on u-root called u-bmc which works as a PoC on
Leopard. The BMC starts in a couple of seconds (I think 8s in that case)
and is operationnal.

Is there a porting guide somewhere ? I liked to get this machine
supported on OpenBMC for various reason, and that might be my first try
with it.

Re: OpenBMC on OCP Leopard server

[Sai Dasari]

Hi vejmarie,

AST1250 is in the family of AST2400 and should have basic needed support in OpenBMC and few of the existing platform use AST2400 family for BMC. 

But most of the new platforms have moved on to AST2500 family and is the focus for current developer team. As an example, please refer to facebook's addition of basic machine support for AST2500 based TiogaPass platform few days back @ https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/tree/master/meta-facebook. It adds only basic support and we are working on the userland feature additions at this time,.

Yesterday, Andrew led hackathon @ Open Power Summit in Amsterdam and we went through series of exercises walking through basic environment setup and adding a new machine. The details are @ https://gist.github.com/geissonator
And hope this is useful for your effort also for adding OpenBMC support for Leopard systems.

Thanks,
Sai,.
