Unfortunately not. There is an out-of-tree implementation of the SMBus MCTP 
binding, but that needs some effort put into it for it to go anywhere. We're 
likely to see a socket-based AF_MCTP implementation before SMBus support is 
merged in libmctp for the purposes of OpenBMC.

I haven't yet heard of anyone running NC-SI over MCTP so you might be breaking 
new ground on that front too :)

Cheers,

Andrew
