8.14 Fail Safe Logic and Watchdog Support

The IPMC firmware supports automatic fail safe logic for the payload firmware on the SP.

8.14.1 SP BMC Watchdog

When the IPMC transitions to M4 (Active), the IPMC automatically enables the BMC Watchdog
with the following settings:

Timer Use: BIOS/POST

Timer Actions: Hard Reset

Timer Countdown Value: 30 Seconds

SP firmware (U-Boot) must disable or reset the BMC Watchdog within 30 seconds of payload
activation. If there is a failure in disabling or resetting the BMC Watchdog, then the IPMC
performs a payload reset.
