[U-Boot-Users] IPMI support

Looking u-boot tree, I see that that u-boot doesn't support IPMI. For my board MPC8280 based it's necessary introduce it in order to be used in ATCA shelf for boot and pre-boot phases. At the end of work I'll submit a patch with support for IPMI using SMBUS (i2c). Does anybody is interested to this ????
thanks Enzo

Hi Enzo, Yes, we are going to introduce an IPMI cummunication channel on our Ethernet Switch Boards. It will be used for e.g. reading MAC address, Serial number, Board ID etc. that are stored on the IPMI flash.
I am working at Ericsson , but using my private mail due to a lot of legal stuff that is auto added to the Ericsson mails these days.
By the way - THANKS YULI, your observant eye did that the BDI2000 debugging works now on the PQ2FADS and our Custom board! Thanks! :-))
Cheers // Matias
