Hello,

after upgrading my system to 14.04.3 LTS and installing the Vivid-LTS-
Enablement-Stack the kernel log of my system is spammed with the
following message by the "impi_si" kernel module:

...
[ 2268.244383] ipmi_si 00:05: Could not set the global enables: 0xcc.
[ 2269.451974] ipmi_si 00:05: Could not set the global enables: 0xcc.
[ 2270.252290] ipmi_si 00:05: Could not set the global enables: 0xcc.
[ 2271.452749] ipmi_si 00:05: Could not set the global enables: 0xcc.
[ 2272.253057] ipmi_si 00:05: Could not set the global enables: 0xcc.
...

This bug is already known to the ipmi_si kernel module maintainer and
seems to be fixed in 4.0+ kernels.

Is it possible to backport this fix to the Vivid 3.19 kernel?

Please see this mail thread: https://www.mail-archive.com/openipmi-

IPMI functionality seems to be unaffected by this bug but as I said it
spams the kernel log and that is rather annoying.
