Hi,

Here's the third batch of outstanding patches/issues.  Unless someone
objects, review comments and feedback should be sent within 2 weeks.

Thank you very much for your help,  :-)

15) Vince Worthington's 8/8/07 patch to validate user-provided sol set
parameters.  This patch was re-posted in response to review comments
from Al Chu.

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=33747.172.18.101.114.1186594128.squirrel%40www.lvwnet.com


My Comments:  Seems like a good idea to me.  Since Al reviewed the patch
thoroughly already, I would suggest we include it and just make sure
this area of the code gets tested thoroughly after we post our
1.8.10beta tarball for everyone to test.  ('Course with SOL, that's a
good idea in general. ;-)



16)  Harshad Prabhu's 8/10/07 patch to ipmi_hpmfwupg.c for HPM.1
upgrade.  

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=ipmitool-devel&max_rows=25&style=nested&viewmonth=200708&viewday=10


My Comments:  This patch moves the "Send initiate command" stanza down a
bit within in the HpmfwupgUpgradeStage() routine.  Harshad, it looks
like the code currently in ipmi_hpmfwupg.c has this stanza moved down
even farther in the routine.  I assume the current code works for you?


17)  Benoit Guillon's 9/5/07 patch to fix sdr repository free space
reporting:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=ipmitool-devel&max_rows=25&style=nested&viewmonth=200709&viewday=5


My Comments:  According to the spec, it appears that what's currently in
the code is wrong and that Benoit's patch will fix it.


18)  Harshad Prabhu's 9/12/07 lan.patch.  "Patch for lan.c file related
to bridged message".

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=OF74776770.85DDAD30-ON88257354.005C1443-88257354.006461A9%40radisys.com

My comments:  This patch looks interesting -- I assume its intent is to
add support for IPMIv2.0/RMCP+ unauthenticated messages?  Harshad, could
you please send a bit more info on the patch such as whether it's fixing
a problem you found, why the check for the response netfn is necessary,
etc.?  Also, I'm hoping some other folks with more expertise in the lan
area than me will review this and send in their comments.


19)  Thomas Rendelmann's 9/12/07 patch to include support for Raritan
OEM commands and his 9/13/07 man page patch to go with it (yay
docs! :-).  (Tony Ernst sent an email on 12/07/07 asking about the
status since he's interested in it too.)


http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=9C329342B62B87498B92834DEC9FF51EC71D26%40fig.raritan.com


My Comments:  I tend to agree with Dmitry's patch review comments
entered at the time about the patch's addition of another argument to
ipmi_open_file().  Is there not another way to pass in what's needed?
Anyone else have comments to share on this?


20)  Harshad Prabhu's 9/18 patch to ipmi_hpmfwupg 

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=ipmitool-devel&max_rows=25&style=nested&viewmonth=200709&viewday=18


My Comments:  Looks like there are lots of nice formatting and output
fixes in there among other things.  Would want to get some review
comments from some of the other HPM folks, too, since there are so many
changes including some functional changes.  Hopefully, we'll get some
more reviewer eyes on this over the next couple of weeks. :-)


21)  John Blair's 9/19/97 patch to stop ipmitool from returning a
failure due to missing sensors.


http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=ipmitool-devel&max_rows=25&style=nested&viewmonth=200709&viewday=19


My Comments:  Yes!  I and many others find the current behavior very
annoying too (it's been on my personal list of things to fix for way too
long).  I would say (to answer your question, John), yes, please check
this into cvs!  :-) 


22.)  Tim Bell reported on 10/10/07 that a segmentation fault occurs
when he runs "ipmitool sol info 1' on the Intel S5000PAL motherboards.
Did anyone ever take a closer look at this issue to see what the fix
might be?

23.) Tim Bell reports on 10/22 that there are a lot of manufacturer
codes missing from ipmitool.  Tim produced a patch which Francois
committed.  Subsequently, Steffan noticed a couple of misspellings
(*SEIMENS* instead of *SIEMENS*).  

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=471C81B3.6070006%40cern.ch

Francois wanted some changes to the new patch (the one that included the
spelling fixes).

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=C2866F9FC4CB034EB51A633DF168598602DD01CB%40ssbarcelonegb

My Comments:  Tim, did we ever respond to Francois' request for changes
to the second (11/13/07) patch?  (Either way, we at least need to fix
the spelling issue for 1.8.10.)
