The feature set -depends on the Intel chipset SKU. - -The Intel Management Engine Interface (Intel MEI, previously known as HECI) -is the interface between the Host and Intel ME. This interface is exposed -to the host as a PCI device. The Intel MEI Driver is in charge of the -communication channel between a host application and the Intel ME feature. - -Each Intel ME feature (Intel ME Client) is addressed by a GUID/UUID and -each client has its own protocol. The protocol is message-based with a -header and payload up to 512 bytes. - -Prominent usage of the Intel ME Interface is to communicate with Intel(R) -Active Management Technology (Intel AMT)implemented in firmware running on -the Intel ME. - -Intel AMT provides the ability to manage a host remotely out-of-band (OOB) -even when the operating system running on the host processor has crashed or -is in a sleep state. - -Some examples of Intel AMT usage are: - - Monitoring hardware state and platform components - - Remote power off/on (useful for green computing or overnight IT - maintenance) - - OS updates - - Storage of useful platform information such as software assets - - Built-in hardware KVM - - Selective network isolation of Ethernet and IP protocol flows based - on policies set by a remote management console - - IDE device redirection from remote management console - -Intel AMT (OOB) communication is based on SOAP (deprecated -starting with Release 6.0) over HTTP/S or WS-Management protocol over -HTTP/S that are received from a remote management console application. - -For more information about Intel AMT: -http://software.intel.com/sites/manageability/AMT_Implementation_and_Reference_Guide - -Intel MEI Driver -======================= - -The driver exposes a misc device called /dev/mei. - -An application maintains communication with an Intel ME feature while -/dev/mei is open. The binding to a specific features is performed by calling -MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT_IOCTL, which passes the desired UUID. -The number of instances of an Intel ME feature that can be opened -at the same time depends on the Intel ME feature, but most of the -features allow only a single instance. - -The Intel AMT Host Interface (Intel AMTHI) feature supports multiple -simultaneous user applications. Therefore, the Intel MEI driver handles -this internally by maintaining request queues for the applications. - -The driver is oblivious to data that is passed between firmware feature -and host application. - -Because some of the Intel ME features can change the system -configuration, the driver by default allows only a privileged -user to access it. - -A code snippet for an application communicating with -Intel AMTHI client: - struct mei_connect_client_data data; - fd = open(MEI_DEVICE); - - data.d.in_client_uuid = AMTHI_UUID; - - ioctl(fd, IOCTL_MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT, &data); - - printf("Ver=%d, MaxLen=%ld\n", - data.d.in_client_uuid.protocol_version, - data.d.in_client_uuid.max_msg_length); - - [...] - - write(fd, amthi_req_data, amthi_req_data_len); - - [...] - - read(fd, &amthi_res_data, amthi_res_data_len); - - [...] - close(fd); - -IOCTL: -====== -The Intel MEI Driver supports the following IOCTL command: - IOCTL_MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT Connect to firmware Feature (client). - - usage: - struct mei_connect_client_data clientData; - ioctl(fd, IOCTL_MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT, &clientData); - - inputs: - mei_connect_client_data struct contain the following - input field: - - in_client_uuid - UUID of the FW Feature that needs - to connect to. - outputs: - out_client_properties - Client Properties: MTU and Protocol Version. - - error returns: - EINVAL Wrong IOCTL Number - ENODEV Device or Connection is not initialized or ready. - (e.g. Wrong UUID) - ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory to client internal data. - EFAULT Fatal Error (e.g. Unable to access user input data) - EBUSY Connection Already Open - - Notes: - max_msg_length (MTU) in client properties describes the maximum - data that can be sent or received.

This means that some Intel AMT features can be accessed from a - local application using the same network interface as a remote application - communicating with Intel AMT over the network. - - When a local application sends a message addressed to the local Intel AMT host - name, the Intel LMS, which listens for traffic directed to the host name, - intercepts the message and routes it to the Intel MEI. - For more information: - http://software.intel.com/sites/manageability/AMT_Implementation_and_Reference_Guide - Under "About Intel AMT" => "Local Access" - - For downloading Intel LMS: - http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/download-the-latest-intel-amt-open-source-drivers/ - - The Intel LMS opens a connection using the Intel MEI driver to the Intel LMS - firmware feature using a defined UUID and then communicates with the feature - using a protocol called Intel AMT Port Forwarding Protocol(Intel APF protocol). - The protocol is used to maintain multiple sessions with Intel AMT from a - single application. - - See the protocol specification in the Intel AMT Software Development Kit(SDK) - http://software.intel.com/sites/manageability/AMT_Implementation_and_Reference_Guide - Under "SDK Resources" => "Intel(R) vPro(TM) Gateway(MPS)" - => "Information for Intel(R) vPro(TM) Gateway Developers" - => "Description of the Intel AMT Port Forwarding (APF)Protocol" - - 2) Intel AMT Remote configuration using a Local Agent - A Local Agent enables IT personnel to configure Intel AMT out-of-the-box - without requiring installing additional data to enable setup.
