FreeIPMI 1.7.1 - XX/XX/XX
-------------------------
In 2019 the IPMI standard was frozen. So a decision was made to try
and make the FreeIPMI 1.7.X line the last stable line in FreeIPMI. A
number of decisions were made to remove legacy support and fix minor issues,
even at the cost of breaking backwards compatibility.
Updated Features:
-----------------
Globally
--------
o Internally allow hostnames to be up to 256 characters (previously only 64).
Libraries
---------
o libfreeipmi/sensor-read: Add error for privilege level insufficient.
o In libfreeipmi, support Intel S2600BPB OEM SEL interpretations.
o Significant refactoring of Intel OEM extensions. Names of
variables, macros, etc. may have changed.
Tools
-----
o In ipmi-sel, support Intel S2600BPB OEM SEL interpretations.
o In ipmi-config, support configuration of Maximum_Privilege_Cipher_Suite_Id_16.
o In ipmi-sensors, support new "altbridging" workaround for Lenovo motherboards.
Typo Fixes:
-----------
Fix large number of typos. The following have the potential to break
against existing builds or scripts that relied on previous expected output.
Libraries:
----------
o In libfreeipmi, fix typos in function names.
- ipmi_device_type_modifer_message() -> ipmi_device_type_modifier_message()
o In libfreeipmi, fix typos in macro names.

o Various performance improvements:
- Remove excessive calls to secure_memset to clear memory.
- Remove excessive memsets and clears of data.
- Remove unnecessary "double input checks".
- Remove expensive input checks in libfreeipmi fiid library.
Fallout from this may include FIID_ERR_FIELD_NOT_FOUND errors in
different fiid functions.
- Remove unnecessary input checks in libfreeipmi fiid library.
- Add recent 'lookups' of fields in fiid library to internal cache.
o Various minor fixes/improvements

avoid issues with applications with a high number of threads.
FreeIPMI 1.5.7 - 08/16/17
-------------------------

FreeIPMI 1.5.5 - 11/02/16
-------------------------
o Fix invalid flag clear in libipmiconsole that can lead to a potential
double close on a file descriptor.
o Support Supermicro H8SGL-F OEM sensors and events.
FreeIPMI 1.5.4 - 09/30/16
-------------------------
o Various changes/fixes in libipmiconsole
- If user retrieves file descriptor from ipmiconsole_ctx_fd, user is
required to close it. ipmiconsole_ctx_destroy no longer closes
it. This is to avoid a potential double close which can be a
problem for multithreaded applications. This is a change in
behavior, but we do not believe this will affect most applications
since most users close the file descriptor under most scenarios
anyways.
- ipmiconsole_ctx_destroy() should now be called to free resources
even if ipmiconsole_engine_teardown() has been called. This has
been done to create consistent behavior in the API and avoid a
former segfault possibility. This is a change in behavior, but we
do not believe this will affect most applications since
ipmiconsole_engine_teardown() is only called when an application
is being shutdown.
- The use of IPMICONSOLE_ENGINE_CLOSE_FD has been clarified in the
header file. Some of the prior text was unclear. Behavior has
not been changed.
o In ipmi-oem, support Intel get-bmc-services and set-bmc-services commands.

--------------------
o Support new tool ipmi-config. Ipmi-config is a consolidated
configuration tool implementing everything that was previously in
bmc-config, ipmi-pef-config, ipmi-sensors-config, and
ipmi-chassis-config.
- The consolidated tool will allow users to checkout, commit, and
diff sections/fields across the four former tools using only one
tool.
- The consolidated tool will also allow users to checkout, commit,
and diff new sections/fields not yet covered in the four former
tools.
- Legacy scripts for bmc-config, ipmi-pef-config,
ipmi-sensors-config, and ipmi-chassis-config will point to the new
tool with all appropriate options to ensure full backwards
compatability.
- The ipmi-pef-config --info option has been made legacy. It is
still supported but no longer advertised.
o Support Intel Data Center Host Interface / Management Engine as
optional driver type for in-band communication.
- Typically these are loaded as /dev/dcmi and /dev/mei drivers.
- This driver is identified as the "inteldcmi" type, as it is
specific to Intel systems.
o Support OEM extensions for Intel Windmill, Wiwynn Windmill, and
Quanta Winterfell motherboards in ipmi-sel and ipmi-sensors. These
motherboards are also know as motherboards for the Open Compute
Project (OCP).
o Support DCMI configuration in ipmi-config.
o Update FreeIPMI for changes in IPMI 2.0 Errata 5. Include are:
- New sensor events for Power Supply and OS Boot sensors. New
events are supported in all areas, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-sel,
libipmimonitoring, etc.
- PEF now supports 255 filter numbers, not 127. This is supported
in ipmi-config (formerly ipmi-pef-config).
- Support get/set of new System Info Parameters Present OS Version,
BMC URL, and Base OS/Hypervisor URL. This is supported in
bmc-info and bmc-device.
o Update ipmi-oem Intel Node Manager OEM commands for changes listed
in Intelligent Power Node Manager 2.0 specification.
- Due to changes in the specification, minor text changes may exist
in some output from intelnm OEM commands.

order.
- May affect scripts parsing and using the GUID.
o Bmc-info now supports --get-system-guid and outputs the System GUID
as well as the Device GUID by default.
- The Device GUID is not prefixed with the text "Device GUID"
instead of just "GUID". Any scripts scripting against this will
need to be adjusted.
o Bmc-info now supports a workaround of 'guidformat' to read the GUID
with a format a number of vendors have incorrectly used.
o In ipmi-config's sensor configuration, decimal values that cannot be
encoded accurately now report a clearer error message.

entry name rather than fixed string.
o In ipmipower, exit with value 1 on IPMI errors in addition to system
errors.
o In ipmidetect, exit with exit value 2 when an error occurs. Exit
value of 0 or 1 are reserved for scripting.
o In bmc-watchdog, properly support assumeio and spinpoll workarounds.

code when returned from activate session command. Noticed on
Xyratex HB-F8-SRAY.
Libraries
---------
o In libfreeipmi, create new 'sdr' sub-library which is merger of the
earlier 'sdr-cache' and 'sdr-parse' libraries.
- This results in an ABI change. Generally speaking, all
"ipmi_sdr_cache" and "ipmi_sdr_parse" functions, types, and macros
are changed to "ipmi_sdr", although some minor exceptions exist.
- For example:
ipmi_sdr_cache_ctx_t -> ipmi_sdr_ctx_t
ipmi_sdr_parse_ctx_t -> ipmi_sdr_ctx_t
ipmi_sdr_cache_ctx_create() -> ipmi_sdr_ctx_create()
ipmi_sdr_parse_ctx_destroy() -> ipmi_sdr_ctx_destroy()
IPMI_SDR_CACHE_ERR_PERMISSION -> IPMI_SDR_ERR_PERMISSION

- Please see the new ipmi-sdr.h header file for full changes.
o In libfreeipmi, create new 'sel' sub-library which replaces the
'sel-parse' library.
- This results in an ABI change. Generally speaking, all
ipmi_sel_parse" functions, types, and macros
are changed to "ipmi_sel", although some minor exceptions exist.
- For example:
ipmi_sel_parse_ctx_t -> ipmi_sel_ctx_t
ipmi_sel_parse_ctx_destroy() -> ipmi_sel_ctx_destroy()
IPMI_SEL_PARSE_ERR_PARAMETERS -> IPMI_SEL_ERR_PARAMETERS
- Please see the new ipmi-sel.h header file for full changes.
o In libfreeipmi, create new 'fru' sub-library which replaces the
'fru-parse' library.
- This results in an ABI change. Generally speaking, all

are changed to "ipmi_fru", although some minor exceptions exist.
- For example:
ipmi_fru_parse_ctx_t -> ipmi_fru_ctx_t
ipmi_fru_parse_ctx_destroy() -> ipmi_fru_ctx_destroy()
IPMI_FRU_PARSE_ERR_PARAMETERS -> IPMI_FRU_ERR_PARAMETERS
