* Where to collect information for Redfish System's Processors, Storage, Memory data @ 2021-03-16 10:22 Thang Nguyen 2021-03-17 19:26 ` Ren, Zhikui 2021-03-17 19:45 ` Ed Tanous 0 siblings, 2 replies; 9+ messages in thread From: Thang Nguyen @ 2021-03-16 10:22 UTC (permalink / raw) To: OpenBMC Maillist Hi, I am looking for how to support Redfish System schema which information from Host: - Processors: redfish/v1/Systems/system/Processors - Storage: redfish/v1/Systems/system/Storage - Memory: redfish/v1/Systems/system/Memory I looked into the bmcweb repository at redfish-core/lib/memory.hpp and redfish-core/lib/pcie.hpp but just see doGet() function to read data from dbus to report via Redfish. There is no doPost() function to post codes to Redfish. My questions are: 1. How can Host BIOS collect information and send to BMC so that BMC can report via Redfish? via in-band Redfish? 2. If the information is not from BIOS, how can BMC collect information? What recipes/repositories are used to collect information? Thanks, Thang Q.

I checked on the Redfish Schema Supplement document and saw attributes from the Memory, Pcie, ... schema are read-only. It means no POST/PATCH action is supported now. How's about suggesting on supporting POST/PATCH action with the needed information change to read-write?

I think the following information should be sent from UEFI: CPU (information in SMBIOS type 4)), Memory, PCIE, Storage (SSD/NVMe, HDD, ...) and firmware information (information in SMBIOS Type 0). I see in some hardware designs, there are I2C connections from BMC to DIMM SPD and PCIE slots.
