This commit makes a major change to the organization and operation of the RPi BMC software. The 'shell' (`bmc.sh`) has been greatly simplified, removing all instances of `wiringpi` GPIO code. The shell communicates with a new Python daemon via a pair of named pipes in `/run/bmcd`. The Python daemon starts and immediately executes two threads: 1) The first manages reading from `/run/bmcd/bmcd.cmd`, which handles the passing of commands from `bmc.sh`, such as 'powersw_press' or 'locate_on'. 2) The second manages writing the current host state out to `/run/bmcd/bmcd.state`, to be read from `bmc.sh` when needed. It does this every second to avoid blocking. An additional thread with an Event handler manages the flashing power LED for the `locate` functions. |
