Bug Description

Currently IPMI is not fully supported by OpenBMC. Instead, OpenBMC's power is controlled through a RESTful interface. While IPMI may be a supported mechanism in the future for OpenBMC, the recommended way to interact with it will continue to be its RESTful API.

See https://github.com/openbmc/docs/blob/master/rest-api.md for an example.

This means that servers running OpenBMC will require both a new module to control its power, and a driver that uses said module.

    Add spec for OpenBMC driver

    Currently IPMI is not fully supported by OpenBMC. Instead,
    OpenBMC's power and boot device is controlled through a
    RESTful interface. While IPMI may be a supported mechanism
    in the future for OpenBMC, the recommended way to interact
    with it will continue to be its RESTful API. This means that
    servers running OpenBMC will require a new module to control
    its power, a new module to set the boot device, and a hardware
    type that has these modules supported. This patch adds
    a spec for these items.
