Hello again,
Can someone explain why the ipmi_sdr_get_sensor_reading_ipmb routine doesn't to
set
the target_addr when not on the "ipmb" interface?
I've been testing over lanplus and I found that any sensor with a target
address not equal
to the IPMI_BMC_SLAVE_ADDR is not readable with the TOB version, but it can be
read with
version 1.8.11.dell19. I tracked the inconsistency between the versions down
to the fact
that following if statement was re-enabled in version 1.96 of ipmi_sdr.c. The
commit comment
for this change doesn't really explain in detail why this change was made.
struct ipmi_rs *
ipmi_sdr_get_sensor_reading_ipmb(struct ipmi_intf *intf, uint8_t sensor,
uint8_t target, uint8_t lun, uint8_t channel)
{
..
if ((strncmp(intf->name, "ipmb", 4)) != 0)
return ipmi_sdr_get_sensor_reading(intf, sensor);
...
return rsp;
}
