IPMI and Redfish support in openbmc Linux

[Tanous, Ed]

A subset of Ipmi 2.0 is provided by the Ipmi daemons here:
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-host-ipmid
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-net-ipmid

Net IPMI supports the out of band ipmi over network.  Host ipmi supports in band ipmi over kcs or block transfer.

There are several servers that support Redfish, and we have a working group that meets weekly to talk through technical issues each week, which you're welcome to attend.  The only one checked into the upstream project is bmcweb.  If you need help getting it started, I'm happy to help.

Yes, ipmitool works compiles for the target, and includes an extra transport to be able to connect directly to dbus and do ipmi transactions from there.

Hi Team,

I build the Linux image using the steps given in https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc, target machine as Zaius. Whether support is available for IPMI 2.0 and Redfish interface? Is it possible to use ipmitool in the cross compiled Linux?
