reading this entry after an OSPM resume, a "boot" has to be
written to this entry if the card was previously shutdown
during OSPM suspend.
2015-09-30 04:14:30 +03:00
"booting" - The MIC device has initiated booting a card OS.
"online" - The MIC device has completed boot and is online
2013-09-06 03:41:55 +04:00
"shutting_down" - The card OS is shutting down.

2013-09-06 03:41:55 +04:00
"reset_failed" - The MIC device has failed to reset.
When written, this sysfs entry triggers different state change
operations depending upon the current state of the card OS.
Acceptable values are:
"boot" - Boot the card OS image specified by the combination
of firmware, ramdisk, cmdline and bootmode
sysfs entries.
"reset" - Initiates device reset.
"shutdown" - Initiates card OS shutdown.

Description:
An Intel MIC device runs a Linux OS during its operation. This
OS can shutdown because of various reasons. When read, this
entry provides the status on why the card OS was shutdown.
Possible values are:
"nop" - shutdown status is not applicable, when the card OS is
"online"
"crashed" - Shutdown because of a HW or SW crash.
"halted" - Shutdown because of a halt command.
"poweroff" - Shutdown because of a poweroff command.
"restart" - Shutdown because of a restart command.

Description:
An Intel MIC device runs a Linux OS during its operation. Before
booting this card OS, it is possible to pass kernel command line
options to configure various features in it, similar to
self-bootable machines. When read, this entry provides
information about the current kernel command line options set to
boot the card OS. This entry can be written to change the
existing kernel command line options. Typically, the user would
want to read the current command line options, append new ones
or modify existing ones and then write the whole kernel command
line back to this entry.

Description:
An Intel MIC device runs a Linux OS during its operation. For
debugging purpose and early kernel boot messages, the user can
access the card OS log buffer via debugfs. When read, this entry
provides the kernel virtual address of the buffer where the card
OS log buffer can be read. This entry is written by the host
configuration daemon to set the log buffer address. The correct
log buffer address to be written can be found in the System.map
file of the card OS.

Description:
The MIC drivers detect and inform user space about card crashes
via a heartbeat mechanism (see the description of
shutdown_status above). User space can turn off this
notification by setting heartbeat_enable to 0 and enable it by
setting this entry to 1. If this notification is disabled it is
the responsibility of user space to detect card crashes via
alternative means such as a network ping. This setting is
enabled by default.
