Hello Shakeeb and Tom, I don’t see any issues with version for BMC in upstream version as well. Software versions are exposed in bmc updater object rather than version object and see following command yields BMC version busctl get-property xyz.openbmc_project.Software.BMC.Updater /xyz/openbmc_project/software/1950470f xyz.openbmc_project.Software.Version Version s "2.9.0-dev-1057-gfe5603705" Regards -Vijay From: openbmc on behalf of TOM JOSEPH Date: Thursday, November 5, 2020 at 9:46 PM To: Shakeeb B K Cc: "openbmc@lists.ozlabs.org" Subject: Re: Firmware Version in ipmi mc info Hello Shakeeb, Typically there is a D-Bus object for each version and that implements the xyz.openbmc_project.Software.Version interface. /xyz/openbmc_project/software doesn't implement the interface. busctl tree xyz.openbmc_project.Software.BMC.Updater └─/xyz └─/xyz/openbmc_project └─/xyz/openbmc_project/software ├─/xyz/openbmc_project/software/6b6a7c53 └─/xyz/openbmc_project/software/76174d14 I guess the upstream implementation of this command is broken with the latest version format. We discussed this in the community, work is not done yet. https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/openbmc/2020-August/022598.html Regards, Tom On 06-11-2020 09:38, Shakeeb B K wrote: Hi Tom, Thanks for the reply.

This Message Is From an External Sender This message came from outside your organization. Hi All, Currently the ipmi handler for "mc info" command depends on the "Version" property on interface xyz.openbmc_project.Software.Version. But this is getting populated only on the image update path by phosphor-bmc-code-mgmt. Shouldn't the version be set on a normal boot as well? Is this a gap in current implementation? Thanks, Shakeeb
