I'm having a few problems, two of which I put into the sourceforge bug
tracker, but if no one is paying attention there:
-If in SOL and a retry occurs, ipmitool 1.8.8 segfaults, because rsp is
NULL, at a particular point, the following patch seems to help:


I recently fixed this (in CVS anyawy) based off some additional bug reports.  It seems that since the 1.8.8 release is broken with SOL I should probably get ready for a 1.8.9 release.



-When ipmitool does successfully attempt a retry in SOL, it does not
increment the IPMI sequence number, which at least some BMC vendor says
only the SOL sequence number stays the same, and the IPMI sequence number
should increase.


Good question, somehow I bet every vendor does it differently but it does seem like the IPMI sequence number should increment in the SOL retry case.  I no longer have an IPMIv2-capable board to try this on, so I don't know if it will break things that work currently.
 

-Sometimes data comes in that isn't SOL that is spit out like SOL data.
For example, the client does chassis device command and the response
sometimes fall through to the output function in ipmi_sol.c (one such fall
through place is confirmed as ipmi_sol.c, line 1404 in ipmitool 1.8.8.
Should output ensure data is SOL data before spitting it out or not?



Yes it probably should be doing something like this...
