Product Information Area Format Version

Table: Product Information Area Format Version

Bits Meaning
7:4 Reserved
3:0 Format version number, 0001b for IPMI FRU Spec. The value for this field is 0x01.

Product Information Area Length

Note: This field is denoted in multiples of 8.

The elements of the product information area are padded up to the nearest 8-byte boundary (using absolute offsets). The default pad value is 0x0. The total length of the board information area is in 8-byte units.

Example Content: 0Eh x 8 byte = 72 bytes

Language Code

Default value 00h indicates that the language code is English and all fields encoded as an 11b type are specified in single-byte ASCII format.

Note: For a detailed list of available language codes, refer to the IPMI FRU Specification

Example Content: 0x00 indicates English

Manufacturer Name

The value for this field is Xilinx encoded in 8-bit ACSII + Latin 1. The values for this field are 0x58, 0x49, 0x4C, 0x49, 0x4E, and 0x58.

Manufacturer Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the board manufacturer field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0xC6, which is decoded as 8-bit ASCII + Latin , and 6 bytes long.

Product Name

The ASCII character value consists of the variable-length product name (maximum length is 16 bytes). The product name is programmed at the time of manufacturing. This value is static for a given board. If the value is less than the chosen board product name length, the remaining/ trailing bytes will occupy empty spaces.

Product Name Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the product name field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0xD0, which is decoded as 8-bit ASCII + Latin 1, and 16 bytes long.

Product Part Number

The ASCII character value consists of the variable-length part number (maximum length is 9 bytes). The part number is programmed at the time of manufacturing. This value is static for a given board. If the value is less than the chosen board part number length the remaining bytes are filled with 0x00.

Product Part Number Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the part number field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0xC9, which is decoded as 8-bit ASCII + Latin 1, and 9 bytes long.

Product Version

The ASCII character value consists of the variable-length board revision number (maximum length is 8 bytes). The revision number is programmed at the time of manufacturing. This value is static for a given board. If the value is less than the chosen board revision number length, any remaining/trailing bytes will occupy empty spaces.

Product Version Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the board revision number field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0xC8, which is decoded as 8-bit ASCII + Latin 1, and 8 bytes long.

Product Serial Number

The ASCII character value consists of the variable-length serial number (maximum length is 14 bytes). The serial number is programmed at the time of manufacturing. This value is static for a given board. If the value is less than the chosen board serial number length, the remaining/ trailing bytes will occupy empty spaces.

Product Serial Number Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the board serial number field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0xCE, which is decoded as 8-bit ASCII + Latin 1, and 14 bytes long.

Asset Tag

The asset tag is N/A for Alveo cards.

Asset Tag Type/Length Byte

This field is will be set to 0x0.

FRU File ID

This field is used to indicate the version of the binary data used to program the FRU storage device. It is intended to aid with FRU file data identification and its use is optional. Non-00h and non-FFh content indicates that this field is being used for FRU file version identification.

  • 0x00: This field is unused for version identification
  • 0x01: Version 1 of FRU data
  • 0x02: Version 2 of FRU data
  • 0xnn: Version nn of FRU data
  • 0xFF: This field is used for version identification

The Xilinx fixed value for this field is 0x00.

FRU File ID Type/Length Byte

This value defines the type and length of the FRU file ID field. See Appendix A for information on the IPMI defined type/length byte format. The fixed value for this field is 0x01, which is decoded as binary data, and 1 byte long.

End of Fields

The value for this field is 0xC1.

Pad

Pad with 0x00 until the board information area ends on an 8-byte boundary (relative to absolute offsets).
