<p class="MsoNormal">If you define device through dts with register 0x11 then device should already be there and you don’t need to define this manually. Please check remote address entry in case you see issues. I don’t think any controller issues at this time.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for the reply, I've found that also it's necessary to <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. Compile ipmi_dev driver into kernel;<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. Rename channel in /usr/share/ipmi-providers/channel_config.json - it must be named "Ipmb", not "IPMB"<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I'm confused with the addresses.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the controller side I open slave device at 0x36 and expect BMC to appear at 0x10 (all in i2cdetect notation).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I assume that in ipmb-channels.json must be the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"type": "ipmb",<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"slave-path": "/dev/ipmb-6",<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"bmc-addr": 34,<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"remote-addr": 108<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">But ipmbbridged ignores this 34 (0x11 shifted left by 1 bit), instead it instantiates device at 0x10 and the re-instantiate it at what is commanded by some service. What service should it be? updateSlaveAddrHandler is never called.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">To override this I've manually changed 0x1010 to 0x1011 in sources and voila - I can now receive the requests from the controller, but it interprets ipmbbridged responses in a wrong manner.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I've added some debug (actually a lot of :)) to ipmbbridged, so it dumps what is sent via I2C. Here is the response:<o:p></o:p></p>
