  10. This option enables device driver support for in-band access to the
  11. IBM RSA (Condor) service processor in eServer xSeries systems.
  12. The ibmasm device driver allows user space application to access
  13. ASM (Advanced Systems Management) functions on the service
  14. processor. The driver is meant to be used in conjunction with
  15. a user space API.
  16. The ibmasm driver also enables the OS to use the UART on the
  17. service processor board as a regular serial port. To make use of
  18. this feature serial driver support (CONFIG_SERIAL_8250) must be
  19. enabled.
  20. WARNING: This software may not be supported or function
  21. correctly on your IBM server. Please consult the IBM ServerProven
  22. website <http://www.pc.ibm/ww/eserver/xseries/serverproven> for
  23. information on the specific driver level and support statement
  24. for your IBM server.
