Isn't this supposed to be the other way around? A FRU daemon reads<br>
EEPROMs (or other means) and hosts raw FRU information on D-Bus, and<br>
then EM can add known D-Bus interfaces based on that. Either way, you<br>
may not need a dependency if you go by standard D-Bus signals<br>
(InterfacesAdded/PropertiesChanged).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This is a different case for IPMB because the IPMB FRU daemon needs some information about which devices support IPMB before it starts to check for SDRs, as if the device doesn't support it, we could be writing bad data into a device on accident.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
