+OpenBMC D-Bus API
+================
+
+***WARNING*** **DEPRECATED API** The /org/openbmc API is deprecated and will *stop working* in a future OpenBMC release.
+
+Please **note** that the v1.99.xx and greater code now has all of its
+interfaces defined in [this](https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-dbus-interfaces)
+repository. The below information in this document is for all v1.0.xx code.
+
+This document aims to specify the OpenBMC D-Bus API.
+
+The Phosphor distribution provides sample applications that implement off all
+the interfaces and objects listed below. Alternative or more feature complete
+applications are possible by implementing parts of this D-Bus API.
+
+OpenBMC typically adheres to D-Bus best practices and usage models; however, one
+deviation is that OpenBMC places no requirements on well-known service names.
+This allows developers to structure their object implementations in whatever
+processes they choose. In the standard D-Bus programming model, applications
+connect to a service with a well-known name. The well-known name is
+associated with a fixed schema. In OpenBMC, without any standardization of
+well-known names, applications lose the knowledge of what applications provide
+which objects. To address this, the Phosphor distribution provides the
+objectmapper service. See the `org.openbmc.objectmapper.ObjectMapper`
+interface below for more information.
+
+The OpenBMC D-Bus API is still alpha. If you have questions or suggestions
+please [let the community know](https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/openbmc).
+
+`org.openbmc.HostIpmi`

+firmware using IPMI. Typically applications should use the higher level APIs
+provided by `org.openbmc.HostServices` to interact with the host processor
+firmware.

+| | | `q` | The created record ID. |

+
+`org.openbmc.record`
+--------------------
+Insert a description of the record interface here.
+
+### properties
+| name | signature | description |
+| ------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| `message` | `s` | **A free from message.** |
+| `severity` | `s` | **The record severity.** |
+| `reported_by` | `s` | **The originating entity of the record.** |
+| `time` | `s` | **The timestamp associated with the record.** |
+| `debug_data` | `ay` | **Development data associated with the record.** |
+
+### namespace
+| path | required | description |
+| --------------------------------------- | -------- | ----------------------- |
+| `/org/openbmc/records/<class>/<record>` | No | Records must be instantiated in the records namespace.|
+
+`org.openbmc.Object.Delete`
+---------------------------
+Applications that create objects that can be removed for any reason must
+implement this interface. Some common examples of this could be an event log
+instance or a user account instance.
+
+### methods
+| name | in signature | out signature | description |
+| -------- | ------------ | ------------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| `delete` | `void` | `void` | **Remove the object from the D-Bus namespace.**|
+
+`org.openbmc.Associations`
+--------------------------
+Applications wishing to create an association between two or more objects
+implement can this interface. Associations exist to provide a stable but
+extendable D-Bus API.
+
+### properties
+| name | signature | description |
+| -------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------- |
+| `associations` | `a(sss)` | **An array of forward, reverse, endpoint tuples.**|
+| | `s` | The type of association to create. |
+| | `s` | The type of association to create for the endpoint.|
+| | `s` | The object path of the endpoint. |
+
+For example, given an object /org/openbmc/events/1 that implements
+`org.openbmc.Associations` and then sets the associations property to:
+
+```json
+"associations": [
+ ["events", "frus", "/org/openbmc/piece_of_hardware"],
+ ["events", "times", "/org/openbmc/timestamps/1"]
+]
+```
+
+would result in the following associations:
+
+```shell
+/org/openbmc/events/1/frus
+/org/openbmc/events/1/times
+/org/openbmc/piece_of_hardware/events
+/org/openbmc/timestamps/1/events
+```
+
+`org.openbmc.Association`
+-------------------------
+Applications use this interface to inject associations into the D-Bus namespace.
+
+### properties
+| name | signature | description |
+| ----------- | --------- | -------------------------------------- |
+| `endpoints` | `as` | **An array of association endpoints.** |
+
+For example, given:
+
+```json
+"/org/openbmc/events/1/frus": {
+ "endpoints": [
+ "/org/openbmc/hardware/cpu0",
+ "/org/openbmc/hardware/cpu1",
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+Denotes the following:
+
+```shell
+/org/openbmc/events/1 => fru => /org/openbmc/hardware/cpu0
+/org/openbmc/events/1 => fru => /org/openbmc/hardware/cpu1
+```
+
+`org.openbmc.settings.Host`
+---------------------------
+The settings.Host interface provides a basic settings repository for host
+processor firmware settings.
+
+### methods
+Host settings are accessed using the standard
+[`org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties`](
+https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-properties)
+interface.
+
+### signals
+Applications are notified of host setting changes using the standard
+[`org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager`](
+https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-objectmanager)
+interface.
+
+### properties
+Settings are accessed using the standard [`org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties`](
+https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-properties)
+interface.
+
+### namespace
+| path | required | description |
+| -------------------------------------- | -------- | ----------------------- |
+| `/org/openbmc/settings/host<instance>` | No | Any host settings instances must be instantiated in the settings namespace. |
+
+`org.openbmc.Watchdog`
+----------------------
+The Watchdog interface enables health monitoring applications to offload timer
+bookkeeping to another application.
+
+### methods
+| name | in signature | out signature | description |
+| ------- | ------------ | ------------- | ------------------------------ |
+| `start` | `void` | `void` | **Start the countdown timer.** |
+| `poke` | `void` | `void` | **Ping the watchdog.** |
+| `stop` | `void` | `void` | **Stop the countdown timer.** |
+| `set` | `i` | `void` | **Set the timer interval.** |
+| | `i` | | The timer interval. |
+
+### signals
+| name | signature | description |
+| --------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------- |
+| `WatchdogError` | `void` | *The watchdog was not pinged before the timer expired.**|
+
+### namespace

+| `/org/openbmc/watchdog/<watchdog>` | No | Any watchdog instances must be instantiated in the watchdog namespace. |
