[Openhpi-announce] Re: [Openhpi-devel] Open HPI 1.9.2 released

[Renier M. <re...@us...>]

OpenHPI 1.9.2 is the third development release of the OpenHPI library=20
since 1.9.0 supporting the HPI B.01.01 spec and on the way to the next=20
stable version 2.0.0.

Being a development release, various library components are only partially =

working. The plugins which are known to work are dummy, ipmi, sysfs,=20
watchdog and snmp=5Fbc. More unit tests have been added and numerous bugs=20
have been fixed and features closed. See the changelog below for details.=20
At the base library level, a couple of enhancements of note are:

    * Improved dynamic configuration interface - No need to open a session =

with saHpiSessionOpen to use this interface now. The library now has much=20
better self-initialization logic to handler this.
    * Updated resource presence table utilities - Correct handling of=20
instrument id numbers in sensor RDRs according to the HPI B spec. This=20
goes to enforce the limitations on the sensor instrument id numbers=20
because of reserved id ranges in the new spec.

We invite everyone to download this new release and share your experiences =

with us. Voice any questions, problems, or suggestions on the OpenHPI=20
mailing list (ope...@li...).
