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