Скачать или смотреть Advancing PLDM: Structured Sensors, Scalable Modeling, and the Server Host SoC PLDM Specification

Justin King Principal Member of Technical Staff - AMD, Samer El-Haj-Mahmoud Distinguished Engineer and System Architect - Arm

As server platforms grow in complexity—with more cores, memory controllers, accelerators, and sensors—existing PLDM mechanisms face limitations in how systems are described and managed. This session presents early DMTF work to extend PLDM with scalable and structured modeling capabilities, including Structured PLDM Sensors, Scalable Entity Association PDRs, and Clone PDRs. We will also introduce a new DMTF informational specification for modeling Server Host SoCs, which builds on these extensions to define sensors and effecters across SoC subsystems including cores, memory, PCIe, and networking. These innovations aim to improve interoperability, enable structured data representation, and enhance manageability for complex and modular systems. The session shares current work-in-progress from the DMTF PMCI working group and invites engagement from the OCP community to align future server design and firmware implementations.
