I have seen the Intel VROC slides [0], and they mention some facilities for integration with BMCs. I assumed they're generic for all the hardware handled by VROC (including SATA as RSTe was apparently made part of VROC) but now that I re-read it, I see "NVMe RAID BMC OOB management via OS, UEFI OOB management coming with Intel VROC 8.0" is apparently NVMe-specific. So even if this is not useful for Tioga Pass it would still be nice to support this feature from OpenBMC side for the next generation servers, and we plan to work on that. > I'd als recommend contacting your Intel support representative to ask about > relevant documentation. Due to the horrible actions of Russia we are no longer permitted to talk to the Intel support representatives. So we have to count on open documentation and communication, and we are willing to share everything useful with the OpenBMC upstream.
