Hi Michael,

It looks like ipmitool itself does have support headers for IPMB, but we
don't have much work done on the IPMB bridge:
https://github.com/openbmc/ipmbbridge

When you say that you need to "access" IPMB i'm a little confused as it's a
transport, not some source of information.  Can you make it a little more
clear what you're trying to do?

The IPMB Bridge implementation has been under review here for a couple 
months.

https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/openbmc/ipmbbridge/+/11130/

We didn't get a lot of comments on it initially, so we had delayed 
merging it.  There were a couple known race conditions in it that 
required some extensive rework, so the intention was to replace the 
patchset with a "better" one.  If there's interest in merging it sooner, 
a code review on the patchset would go a long ways.
