Hi Al,
Thanks a lot. I was able to compile and run the new code smoothly on the IBM x346 chassis.


Thanks,
Avnindra

I'll forward you can e-mail with the current code in our 0.2.0 branch. It has a lot of fixes.

Subject: [Freeipmi-users] FreeIPMI 0.1.3  on IBM x336



Hi,
I'm currently trying to make FreeIMPI work on IBM x series 346 which claims IMPI compatibiltiy.
1. Compiled and installed freeipmi.
2. Found sms base address using dmidecode utility.
which is returned as:
........
.........
Handle 0x0035
DMI type 38, 18 bytes.
IPMI Device Information
Interface Type: KCS (Keyboard Control Style)
Specification Version: 1.5
I2C Slave Address: 0x10
NV Storage Device: Not Present
*Base Address: 0x0000000000000CA8 (I/O)*
Register Spacing: 32-bit Boundaries
using this base address modified the fish.scm in /usr/local/etc/fish/fish.scm
bash-2.04# cat /usr/local/etc/fish/fish.scm
;; fish.scm: default fish configuration scm


;; Customize Fish:
(fi-set-prompt! "myprompt# ")

;; Set driver SMS IO Base port
(fi-set-sms-io-base! #x0CA8)

3. Ran bmc-info
It hangs without producing any results.

Invoked fish
#/usr/local/sbin/fish
bash-2.04# /usr/local/sbin/fish
FreeIPMI Shell [fish-0.1.3]

At the fish prompt called, which gives bmc-info.
# eval (fi-kcs-get-dev-id-display)
At this point fish hangs.


Enabled debug and ran fish under gdb.
Put breakpoint at ipmi_kcs_wait_for_ibf_clear
It just gets stuck in while loop in this function, sms_io_base variable, which is set initially 0xca8 somehow gets changed to 0xbfbf under this function.


I wonder how sms_io_base gets changed to some other value?
Can somebody tell me what else can I do to further debug? I'll promptly provide any other info needed.


Thanks in advance,
Avnindra
