Re: [Panicsel-developers] Intel STL2 board capable of IPMI functions?

[Steven A. D. <lin...@mi...>]

OK, the STL2 board seems to be capable of some IPMI functions.
I was able to list out the SEL so far using showsel from the
panicsel package and the linux-ipmi-2.4.19 driver from Corey
Minyard. I tried to use San's ipmi_ctl software (I pointed
you towards this the other day, Andy) and it keeps failing
in the report_device_id function with an error of:

report_device_id(): failed (Invalid argument)

Andy: Did you get ipmi_ctl to work or not?
If you did was there any code modification you had to do
to the various source files for ipmi_ctl?
The dmidecode tool that comes with the ipmi_ctl package seems
to work fine on the STL2 motherboard I have so at least
part of San's old tools work.

I see Corey's driver supports generating an event on a panic
like the bmcpanic.patch does. Any idea if only one or the other
is needed to use panicsel or will both patches co-exist OK?
Or will either patch work with panicsel?

I notice that one conflict with the patches is that both add
panic_notifier_list to the list of exported symbols in ksyms.c
My guess is that only one or the other of the patches is needed
but can anyone confirm that?
