Cress Andrew R provide more info. This should help!

There will always be some messages for OEM extensions that are not publicly documented, but showsel.c from http://ipmiutil.sf.net has done empirical mapping of System Events, for instance. It is BSD-licensed source, so you can leverage it if it helps.

I have striven to provide as much as possible empirically without using the internal Intel specs & being tainted. I do have the advantage of lots of test equipment that others may not.

Current "ipmi-sel" utility displays all possible information based on IPMI specification. To display proprietary extensions or OEM records in detail, Intel has to release more info, which they are refusing. May be LLNL can put pressure on Intel to make this happen.

The FreeIPMI sel utility outputs less debugging information than the Intel SELView utility. Is there anyway the sel program can output more info? Here are two examples give to us by a Intel Engineer:

1. SELVIEW prints out description of post error which is valuable for debug while Free IPMI SEL Viewer does not.

*SELVIEW : System Firmware Error (POST Error). POST Code: 8140 - Processor 01: failed FRB level 3 timer.

*Free IPMI SEL viewer : System Firmware Error (POST Error)

2. SELVIEW prints out description of processor error while Free IPMI SEL Viewer prints out.

*SELVIEW : Correctable error in Processor CPU2 - J7M1

*Free IPMI SEL viewer : Processor #0:IERR:SMI Handler
