README and Platform Events whitepaper This commit introduces general README to the repository. It gives basic information about intel-ipmi-oem role and surroundings, with references to proper documents and repositories. It also introduces detailed document intended for end-users about Platform Event parsing. Intel platforms are source of high-impact health events and this usually introduces confusion and false-positives among OEM BMC implementations. Document specifies abstract algorithm for parsing these events and references existing implementation in repository as solution. It's intended to be used by external OEMs as guide for porting the feature to other BMC implementations.

This component is intended to provide Intel-specific IPMI[3] command handlers for OpenBMC. These handlers are intended to integrate BMC with servers based on Intel architecture.
intel-ipmi-oem serves as an extension[1] to OpenBMC IPMI daemon[2]. It is compiled as a shared library and intended to both:
Related features provided by the library are grouped in separate source files. Main extensions to vanilla OpenBMC IPMI stack are the following:
