OEM Get POST Register
The Get POST Register command allows the BMC to obtain the last POST code written
to the SMC by the coprocessor. The SMC does not modify this value in any way.
to the SMC by the coprocessor. The SMC does not modify this value in any way.
6.6.3.7.3
OEM Assert Forced Throttle
The Assert Forced Throttle command allows the BMC to cause the SMC to assert the
PROCHOT pin to the coprocessor.
PROCHOT pin to the coprocessor.
6.6.3.7.4
OEM Enable External Throttle
The Enable External Throttle command causes the SMC to enable a pin on the
baseboard connector (pin B12) allowing the baseboard BMC to directly assert the
PROCHOT signal. The baseboard requirements to enable this pin on the baseboard are
described in section 4.1.1. The signal to assert emergency throttling via pin B12 is
active low on the baseboard and is driven by the BMC. However, the pin must first be
enabled by the SMC. This can be accomplished by sending the Enable External Throttle
command as described in this section. The pin will need to be enabled each time a reset
or power cycle event occurs. Its state is not persistent across these events.
