This doesn't sound like "a minor bug" ? What are the actual symptoms of the bug? Does it crash, always, sometimes? Does it actually "block the subsequent ipmi operations"? Even if this *is* a minor bug, please give it a proper subject that describes what it does. Also which commit introduced the bug? And finally you don't seem to have CC'ed the ipmi maintainers? cheers _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
