sdbusplus: use shorter type aliases

The sdbusplus headers provide shortened aliases for many types.
Switch to using them to provide better code clarity and shorter
lines.  Possible replacements are for:
  * bus_t
  * exception_t
  * manager_t
  * match_t
  * message_t
  * object_t
  * slot_t

Intel IPMI OEM support library

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.

Overview

intel-ipmi-oem serves as an extension[1] to OpenBMC IPMI daemon[2]. It is compiled as a shared library and intended to both:

  • override existing implementation of standard IPMI commands to comply with Intel-specific solutions,
  • provide implementation for non-standard OEM extensions.

Capabilities

Related features provided by the library are grouped in separate source files. Main extensions to vanilla OpenBMC IPMI stack are the following:

  • Acquiring SMBIOS data over IPMI
  • Commands for better integration with Intel hardware
  • Firmware update extensions
  • Extended parsing of IPMI Platform Events[4]
