Dimitry,

I took at look at your bugfix patch and found that it has a dependency
on your 4th patch.   This needs to be resolved.   Each of these patches
should be able to be be applied independently,  even if a later patch depends
on a prior patch already having been applied.

I would like to understand why you want to inhibit bridging sensor requests
more than one level.   You mention in your comment that it is a workaround for
PICMG systems, but the change is not specific to PICMG systems. Won't this
cause problems on systems that support more than a single level of bridging?
I no expert on how IPMI bridging works, but the code as written (before your
change) would support multiple levels of bridging.

Also, I don't believe the save/restore logic you are using will work correctly 
if you
are actually bridging to a different target address.   Your logic is as follow:

    if (intf->target_addr == intf->my_addr) {
        save_addr = intf->target_addr;
        intf->target_addr = target;
        save_channel = intf->target_channel;
        intf->target_channel = channel;
    }
..... (sendrecv) ...

    if (intf->target_addr == intf->my_addr) {
        intf->target_addr = save_addr;
        intf->target_channel = save_channel;
    }

If the intf->target_addr is changed to a value different than intf->my_addr in 
the
first if block, then the restore will never happen in the second if block. This 
is because
when you get to the second if, intf->target_addr won't equal intf->my_addr 
anymore so
the intf restore of target_addr/target_channel won't happen.

Hello, IPMITool maintainers,

On behalf of Pigeon Point Systems company,
I would like to contribute the following patches which contains IPMITool 
bug-fixes and some new functionality.

Below is the description for the attached patches:

1. pps-bugfixes.diff:
   o lib/ipmi_sel.c
     - zero data before making request to avoid reading of uninitialized
       data
   o lib/ipmi_mc.c
     - do not print AUX info, if IPMC return 12-byte Get Device ID
       response
   o lib/ipmi_sdr.c
     - do not bridge sensor requests when interface bridging is already
       used. Is workaround for PICMG systems (ATCA/MicroTCA).
   o lib/ipmi_picmg.c
     - add support for hexadecimal and octal formats for the command-line
       parameters
   o configure.in
     - fixed build for the newer autotool releases
     - fixed cross-compilation
2. pps-oem.diff
   o Add support for PPS H8 evaluation board BMC which contains Intel
     82751 GbE MAC. RMCP+ support for this MAC controller has several
     deviations.
3. pps-sol-instance.diff
   o Add support for SOL instances other than 1.
4. pps-long-packets.diff
   o Add support for HPM.2 compliant long packets. The implementation is
     made against the HPM.2 0.9.2 draft specification, and requires
     update for the HPM.2 1.0 release version. Pigeon Point Systems is
     going to provide the update later.
   o HPM.1 upgrade and FRU Inventory commands were modified to reuse the
     long packet support.
   o Access to FRU inventory devices with the length restrictions is
     made as a command-line option.
   o Kontron OEM large packet support is now optional and enabled by the
     corresponding OEM command-line parameter.
5. pps-serial-drivers.diff
   o Add support for Terminal Mode and Basic Mode direct serial drivers.

The patches with greater numbers depend on patches with lesser numbers and must 
be applied in the ascending order.
