In interfaces/ipmb.py, the rx_filter function assumes that all the fields are present in the data array. If that's not the case, then the code crashes. I was able to fix it by adding a check at line 241 if len(data) < 7: return False
Not sure if it's unique to my setup, but the Aardvark I am using consistently seems to return just the address byte on the first iteration of the polling loop when looking for an IPMB response. Then the rx_filter code tries to index off the end of data[] and bombs out.
The real fix maybe needs more sophistication (or at least not just a magic number) - not totally sure. I guess I'm hoping that pointing this out will let somebody more knowledgeable drop in a real fix.
Thanks
