Currently, the HPM.1 agent in the IPMItool does not differ between Rollback
support and Deferred Activation Support. The patch fixes up this bug.

1. Warnings about "FRU Area Length" based on uninitialized (malloc'd) memory
contents (due to fru->max_read_size not being initialized, left at 0) and
fru_data not being zeroed after malloc() in ipmi_fru_set_field_string().
2. "fru edit" commands for any field index other than 0 would fail (with "Field
not found !" error) due to a couple offset and length calculation errors (for
all the supported "area" types) in ipmi_fru_set_field_string().
3. "fru edit" commands would corrupt the FRU Inventory Area due to incorrect
"source offset" value being specified in write_fru_area() call in
impi_fru_set_field_string().

The lanplus driver for has a bug in ipmi_lanplus_open_session(). There is
an extra and undesired check for a null response (timeout). As a result, it
returns 1 to the caller. The result of this is an occasional assertion. Commit
mends this.

max_inbound_payload_size, max_outbound_payload_size and port are
assembled byte by byte using shifts. This works correctly in both
little and big endian and doing a subsequent byte swap is wrong.
To highlight this issue I dumped the values on a big endian machine:
max_inbound_payload_size 51200
max_outbound_payload_size 51200
port 28418
And after this fix:
max_inbound_payload_size 200
max_outbound_payload_size 200
port 623

From the ticket:
(v1.8.12) "dcmi power set_limit action <value>" (where <value> is either
"sel_logging" or "power_off") does not actually send the "Set Power Limit"
command (so no change to the power limit policy is made).
This was caused by all atoi(), strtol(), strtoul() calls being replaced. This
patch should fix it.

This patch adds basic long message support for PICMG-based systems according to
the HPM.2 specification.
It also introduces APIs for setting inbound and outbound messages sizes per
selected interface.
This APIs are used in LAN and LAN+ interfaces to set autonomously detected
inbound and outbound message sizes.
The newly introduced APIs also replace the existing message size detection code
in several ipmitool commands in order to leverage the advantages of long message
support (HPM.1 upgrade, SDR acquring, FRU inventory read and write).
The Kontron-specific long message support is moved under a OEM option.

The intent is to zero the byte that no longer contains valid data (because the
data was shifted one byte to the left). However, the wrong byte is being zeroed.
One way this shows up is when displaying the descriptions with hpm compprop.
``I had submitted a patch back on Nov 19, 2013 regarding a fix to lanplus retry.
This had resolved a problem whereby a retry of a payload type of
IPMI_PAYLOAD_TYPE_IPMI first removed the request from the queue before going
back for a retry of the message. I have been able to determine why this fix
works correctly. More importantly I have been able to resolve other retry
problems in lanplus where assertion panics were hitting on certain retry
operations. A new, replacement patch for resolving both of these types of retry
bugs follows.
The first bug,where the ipmi_lanplus_send_payload() is sending a payload type of
IPMI_PAYLOAD_TYPE_IPMI is retryable, however I found in testing that it did not
remove the previous request entry from the list of requests chain. If the
original message had timed out, a second message sent, the second reply would
not match up to the right entry on the list as the req command and sequence
numbers are the same. By first removing the first request from the chain this
resolves it. The consequence of not removing the stale entry was random errors.
The second bug is when waiting for a message response times out during the
ipmi_lanplus_send_payload types IPMI_PAYLOAD_TYPE(s) RCMP_OPEN_REQUEST, RAKP1,
RAKP_3. In various testing where the message timed out on either of these three
payload types, ipmitool would assertion panic upon retry as the session_state
was wrong. The timeout could be due to the message never getting to the BMC, the
BMC never acting/responding to the message, or the reply message packet dropped
(it is UDP after all). If the BMC had acted on the message but the reply was not
received, the BMC state would had advanced, and a retry of any of these three
commands would error. It is not knowable at retry time if the BMC had acted on
the message or not. The solution is upon message timeout failure, retry all
three commands in the sequence. This has shown to be reliable and does not
result in assertions or any unexpected BMC behaviors. Should the original
message response eventually arrive very late, it is just discarded.
The testing for these problems was elusive until we found a moderately slow BMC
and had separate sessions direct a fusillade of nmap operations on the BMC, then
run simple ipmitool commands. This caused sufficient loading of the network and
BMC to cause lengthy delays and outright packet drops. The general approach on
the second fix is to return a timeout error code back through ipmi_lanplus_open
where the sequence can be retried.''

Currently if we are connected to ipmitool sol session and if service processor
goes down due to reset/reload, then user has no way to know that sol session has
been disconnected. Commit aims to fix such case.
