([Hardware] 3 Hours Ago OpenBMC 2.18)


OpenBMC 2.18 released on Friday as the newest version of this Linux Foundation project providing an open-source baseboard management controller (BMC) firmware stack implementation. In recent years [1]OpenBMC has been enjoying increasing success in deploying to server platforms from the mega hyperscalers to the more prominent OEM/ODM vendors seeing increasing customer demand for open-source BMC as part of broader open-source firmware interest from the industry.

OpenBMC 2.18 is derived from Yocto 5.2 Linux as its base and upstreams support for many more motherboards. The newly-upstreamed OpenBMC support ranges from reference motherboard designs from AMD and and Intel Ampere to various server platforms from the likes of Tyan, Supermicro, Wistron, IBM, HPE, ASRock, and others. There are also hyper-scaler platforms upstreamed from the likes of Meta / Facebook and Bytedance.

phoronix

Take a look around you, tell me what you see,
A girl who thinks she's ordinary lookin' she has got the key.
If you can get close enough to look into her eyes
There's something special right behind the bitterness she hides.
And you're fair game,
You never know what she'll decide, you're fair game,
Just relax, enjoy the ride.
Find a way to reach her, make yourself a fool,
But do it with a little class, disregard the rules.
'Cause this one knows the bottom line, couldn't get a date.
The ugly duckling striking back, and she'll decide her fate.
(chorus)
The ones you never notice are the ones you have to watch.
She's pleasant and she's friendly while she's looking at your crotch.
Try your hand at conversation, gossip is a lie,
And sure enough she'll take you home and make you wanna die.
(chorus)
-- Crosby, Stills, Nash, "Fair Game"
