Actually, I don't understand that code that well, and I can't find any interpretation like this. However, only the asserted bit is allowed, so if they report deasserted then that's the only way it can be there.
Well, there is one other way, thinking about it. Sometimes BMCs will report bits that are not supported (because of bugs). IIRC OpenIPMI ignores these. ipmitool does not appear to ignore these. -corey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > That could be -- though looking at the ipmitool source, I don't see any > special interpretations for anything.
