Hi Peng,

> Just want to answer (most of) your questions in batch:
> 1) This patch intended to add the functionality of ipmi set/get boot option, with dbus property and object mapper used, so I believe all of the contents in this patch should be considered as a whole. We shouldn't split them into multiple patches.

The set/get boot option is fine as one patch (or two... not too fussed really) I
agree.

You do still have whitespace (and other) changes which touch code not related
to the boot option work, notably in ipmi_chassis_power_control() and
ipmi_chassis_control()

> 2) atoi is an alternative, but I don't see there is any reason why to use it since sscanf/sprintf works fine for now. I don't believe there is too much performance concern there. 

I'm not saying sscanf won't work, I completely agree that it will. I do
disagree that there isn't a performance concern, if I'm not mistaken this code
will be running on an ASPEED2400 which is a single core ARM chip running at
400MHz. We have breathing space and we don't need to write absolutely
everything to save all the possible cycles but lets not waste the little
breathing space we do have.

> 3) For those sd_bus method call with signatures ("s", "v", "s{ass}", etc.), I believe the current way I use it is valid since I have tested them already.

Again, I'm not saying it won't work but I'm trying to understand why the
complexity in these signatures, it doesn't seem like it's being used and
pointless complexity doesn't help anyone.

However, if there is a good reason for these complicated signatures I'm all for
it, if you could document them in
https://github.com/openbmc/docs/blob/master/dbus-interfaces.md that would be
fantastic.

Thanks.

> 4) For the commented out error handling, I believe it's just a work around, but it did works according to my test. So I believe it's OK for this patch to have it and we should revisit it later.
> 5) For the way how return code is handled, I believe it is working fine.
> 6) For the coding style stuff, such as spaces between function names and the bracket, I don't think it's a major issue. Maybe it's a minor issue that they are not consistent with some piece of code elsewhere. It can be fixed with my auto style tool very easily. 
>  

It isn't a major issue at all but this project already has enough code style
issues as it is, I don't see why patches should be merged that introduce more
style problems.

Perhaps you should run your auto style tool on your patch(es) before submission?
