FreeIPMI 1.3.1 - 08/22/13
-------------------------

Tools - New Features
--------------------
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), timestamps are now
reporting under the assumption the timestamp is already in
localtime (compared to being in UTC time and converted to
localtime). This is by definition in the IPMI specification.
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), support
--utc-to-localtime, --localtime-to-utc, and --utc-offset
options to allow users to adjust timestamps as needed for
certain environments.
o In ipmi-fru, support output of DDR3 SDRAM modules.
o In ipmi-fru, support output of new FRU multirecords, most
notably extended DC output and extended DC load (per FRU
Revision 1.2 update).
o In bmc-device, support --get-sel-time-utc-offset and
--set-sel-time-utc-offset.

Tools - Bug Fixes/Minor Changes
-------------------------------
o In ipmi-fru, report power supply low/high end voltage ranges as
signed numbers (per FRU Revision 1.2 update).
o In ipmi-fru, output "unspecified" for manufacturing date/time
or peak capacity as appropriate (per FRU Revision 1.2 update).
o In ipmi-fru, bridge additional FRU entries as appropriate.
o In all tools reporting time (ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru, ipmi-oem,
bmc-device, ipmi-sensors, ipmi-dcmi), special timestamps such
as Post-Init and Unspecified will now be output.
o Fix output corner case with entity sensor names in various
tools.

Libraries
---------
o In libfreeipmi, support additional chassis types (per FRU
Revision 1.2 update).
o In libfreeipmi, support new FRU multirecord types (per FRU
Revision 1.2 update).
o In libfreeipmi, support new IPMI_FRU_FLAGS_READ_RAW 'fru'
sub-library flag to read data from the FRU raw without parsing
headers/records.
o In libfreeipmi, add support for DDR3 SDRAM FRU entries and
JEDEC manufacturer IDs.
o In libfreeipmi, add support for Get SEL Time UTC Offset and
Set SEL Time UTC Offset payloads.
o In libfreeipmi 'sel' sub-library, support
IPMI_SEL_PARAMETER_UTC_OFFSET,
IPMI_SEL_STRING_FLAGS_UTC_TO_LOCALTIME, and
IPMI_SEL_STRING_FLAGS_LOCALTIME_TO_UTC options/flags.
o In libfreeipmi, do not pad legacy byte on IPMI 1.5 packets.
Legacy byte should be padded on ethernet frame, not IP packet.
o In libfreeipmi, 'sdr' sub-library, when creating SDR cache, add
checksums to cache to ensure data in cache is not corrupted.
Older caches without checksums still backwards compatible
supported.
o In libfreeipmi, support new
IPMI_ERR_COMMAND_INVALID_OR_UNSUPPORTED
error code for IPMI commands that are invalid or unsupported.
