Yep, no arguments from me here. The PLDM sensor(or whatever
the right term for it is) will support all defined values sent to it
by the system firmware.

bmcweb will translate what it can when responding to a Redfish
API query for the host state.

I’m thinking I’ll have phosphor-state-manager translate whatever
it can into the OperatingSystemState and BootProgress D-Bus
properties.
