Targets as a problem with editing FRUs (like ipmitool ....
fru edit 0 field b 0 "blahblah") where the header (multirecord area offset) is
not correctly updated.
It is supposed to modify the header offset to muti-record area if any of
the three previous areas has been edited.
Remark: this has to occur before the new header crc is calculated.
Thats the reson the modification is not close to the actual movement of the
data. Maybe it would be nicer to change the order in the code here. But
I do not want to add undesired behaviour, thus keeping a clear and small
patch.
Editing a fru without resizing it caused the checksum being incorrect and not
being updated. This fix changes this, so the checksum is now being correctly
calculated and written to the right place.
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().
Commit for Rob Swindell
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.
