[PATCH 6/12] IPMI: fix request events

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When the IPMI message handler requested that the interface look
for events, the ipmi_si driver would request flags, see if the
event buffer full flag was set, then request events.  It's better
to just send the request for events, as it cuts one message out
of the transaction if there happens to be events, and it will
fetch events even if the event buffer was not full.
