[Skiboot] [PATCH 0/5] IPMI graceful shutdown and NVRAM locking

[Joel Stanley]

Hello,

This series of patches enables the BMC to asynchronously (ie, not in
response to a request) send the host a message through the SMS_ATN mechanism.

When combined with the Linux side patch[1], this allows graceful shutdown over
ipmi:

 ipmitool -I lanplus -H my-openpower-box power soft

As well as reboot:

 ipmitool -I lanplus -H my-openpower-box power cycle

It also implements a PNOR locking mechanism that allows the BMC to ask the host
for accesss to the PNOR. When it has the PNOR locked, skiboot will deny access
to the nvram API, which is how Linux accesses the PNOR.
