System and Method for Providing Keyboard, Video, and Mouse Functionality

摘要

A method and information handling system utilize an enclosure controller connected to a plurality of server modules. The enclosure controller has an enclosure controller processor for obtaining server module video data from a server module of the plurality of server modules. The enclosure controller provides the server module video data for display. At least one parameter of the server module video data is modified to simplify processing of the server module video data in response to detection of an excessive processing burden of the enclosure controller processor.

1. A method comprising:
initiating advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA) high-performance bus (AHB)-to-peripheral component interconnect (PCI) (AHB-to-PCI) to video graphics adapter (VGA) transactions to initialize a PCI video controller; receiving a user selection of a server module upon which to focus among a plurality of server modules; initiating a virtual keyboard, video, and mouse (VKVM) session with a baseboard management controller (BMC) of the server module; determining a current video resolution of the server module; mastering AHB-to-PCI to VGA transactions to change a local resolution to match the current video resolution of the server module; decompressing video data to obtain decompressed video data; and updating a local frame buffer region with the decompressed video data.
