CONFIG_IPMI_SI_PROBE_DEFAULTS: Probe for all possible IPMI system interfaces by default

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_IPMI_SI_PROBE_DEFAULTS:

• prompt: Probe for all possible IPMI system interfaces by default
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_IPMI_SI
• defined in drivers/char/ipmi/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 3.15–3.19, 4.0–4.7

Help text

Modern systems will usually expose IPMI interfaces via a discoverable firmware mechanism such as ACPI or DMI. Older systems do not, and so the driver is forced to probe hardware manually. This may cause boot delays. Say "n" here to disable this manual probing. IPMI will then only be available on older systems if the "ipmi_si_intf.trydefaults=1" boot argument is passed.
