- ---help---
- This option enables device driver support for in-band access to the
- IBM RSA (Condor) service processor in eServer xSeries systems.
- The ibmasm device driver allows user space application to access
- ASM (Advanced Systems Management) functions on the service
- processor. The driver is meant to be used in conjunction with
- a user space API.
- The ibmasm driver also enables the OS to use the UART on the
- service processor board as a regular serial port. To make use of
- this feature serial driver support (CONFIG_SERIAL_8250) must be
- enabled.

- WARNING: This software may not be supported or function
- correctly on your IBM server. Please consult the IBM ServerProven
- website <http://www.pc.ibm.com/ww/eserver/xseries/serverproven> for
- information on the specific driver level and support statement
- for your IBM server.
