Ok, done. It's at https://github.com/cminyard/qemu on github. There
are two branches at the moment, stable-2.2-ipmi is based on the 2.2
release and will not rebase. master-ipmi-rebase will rebase on master
as it moves.
I haven't done extensive testing yet, and it has a few experimental
things, like an SMBus IPMI interface and an I2C mux device. I need to
split all that out at some point. I also need to rework the ACPI
handling to use the new code to build the ACPI tables.
Copying qemu-devel so that group knows.
Thanks,
