bge(4)'s IPMI support for old controllers had many issues and
didn't work well. Only some of users had luck to enjoy it. However
IPMI support for 5717/5718/5719/5720 has no known issues and it
should work. I also got a report that mentions IPMI does not work
any more on 5715 after adding support for 5717/5718/5719/5720.
The sanitized public data sheet does not mention IPMI interface so
Linux tg3 would be the only source of information. Given that I
don't have access to IPMI-capable controllers I have no idea when
it could be fixed. Somebody with the IPMI-capable controllers have
to sit down and verify all possible combinations.
