I haven't heard anything about these patches. Any comments, good or
bad? Has anyone tried these?
Thanks,

I had asked about getting an IPMI device into qemu and received some
interest, and it's useful to me, so I've done some work to add it.
The following patch set has a set of patches to add an IPMI KCS
device, and IPMI BT device, a built-in BMC (IPMI management controller),
and a way to attach an

This lets devices that don't care about their interrupt number, like
IPMI, just grab any unused interrupt.

This provides the base infrastructure to tie IPMI low-level

This adds an interface for IPMI that connects to a remote
BMC over a chardev (generally a TCP socket). The OpenIPMI
lanserv simulator describes this interface, see that for
interface details.

There was no way to directly add a table entry to the SMBIOS table,
even though the BIOS supports this. So add a function to do this.
This is in preparation for the IPMI handler adding it's SMBIOS table
entry.

This provides a minimal local BMC, basically enough to comply with the
spec and provide a complete watchdog timer (including a sensor, SDR,
and event).

Add the basic IPMI types and infrastructure to QEMU. Low-level
interfaces and simulation interfaces will register with this; it's
kind of the go-between to tie them together.

Setting up the firmware interface for the SMBIOS table needs to
be done later in the process, after device initialization, so that
devices can add entries to the table.

I think we are getting a little out of hand here, and we are mixing up
concepts :).
There are lots of things IPMI *can* do (including serial access, VGA
snooping, LAN access, etc.) but I don't see any value it that. The main
thing here is to emulate the interface to the guest. OOB
management would be easy.

I've been working on adding an IPMI BMC as a virtual device under KVM. I'm
doing this for two primary reasons, one to have a better test
environment than
what I have now for testing IPMI issues, and second to be able to better
simulate a legacy environment for customers porting legacy
Look at drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c. It has code to send panic
event over IMPI. The code is pretty complex. Of course if we a going to
implement something more complex than simple hypercall for panic
notification we better do something more interesting with it than just
saying panic
I'm playing around with KVM on an ebony board (440GP), just trying to
get it to work, really. I followed the instructions at
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/PowerPC and I used the 2.6.33 branch of
the kvm kernel repository. When I try to run kvm, qemu appears to abort
and actually logs me off.

Thanks! The patch looks good to me. It's unfortunate that 440GP is
reported is ppc440gp, while every other 440 variant is reported is
ppc440, but that's just how it goes I guess. It shouldn't be too
difficult to get things working, since the cores are more or less the
