Nuvoton iBMC boards (``*-bmc``, ``npcm750-evb``, ``quanta-gsj``)
|
|
================================================================
|
|
|
|
The `Nuvoton iBMC`_ chips (NPCM7xx) are a family of ARM-based SoCs that are
|
|
designed to be used as Baseboard Management Controllers (BMCs) in various
|
|
servers. They all feature one or two ARM Cortex-A9 CPU cores, as well as an
|
|
assortment of peripherals targeted for either Enterprise or Data Center /
|
|
Hyperscale applications. The former is a superset of the latter, so NPCM750 has
|
|
all the peripherals of NPCM730 and more.

|
|
|
|
The NPCM750 SoC has two Cortex-A9 cores and is targeted for the Enterprise
|
|
segment. The following machines are based on this chip :
|
|
|
|
- ``npcm750-evb`` Nuvoton NPCM750 Evaluation board
|
|
|
|
The NPCM730 SoC has two Cortex-A9 cores and is targeted for Data Center and
|
|
Hyperscale applications. The following machines are based on this chip :
|
|
|
|
- ``quanta-gbs-bmc`` Quanta GBS server BMC
|
|
- ``quanta-gsj`` Quanta GSJ server BMC
|
|
- ``kudo-bmc`` Fii USA Kudo server BMC
|
|
- ``mori-bmc`` Fii USA Mori server BMC
|
|
|
|
There are also two more SoCs, NPCM710 and NPCM705, which are single-core
|
|
variants of NPCM750 and NPCM730, respectively. These are currently not
|
|
supported by QEMU.

Boot options
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The Nuvoton machines can boot from an OpenBMC firmware image, or directly into
|
|
a kernel using the ``-kernel`` option. OpenBMC images for ``quanta-gsj`` and
|
|
possibly others can be downloaded from the OpenPOWER jenkins :
|
|
|
|
https://openpower.xyz/
|
|
|
|
The firmware image should be attached as an MTD drive. Example :
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ qemu-system-arm -machine quanta-gsj -nographic \
|
|
-drive file=image-bmc,if=mtd,bus=0,unit=0,format=raw
|
|
|
|
The default root password for test images is usually ``0penBmc``.
