Implement GPIO-based alert mechanism in the SSIF BMC driver to notify
the host when a response is ready.

This improves host-BMC communication efficiency by providing immediate
notification, potentially reducing host polling overhead.

Thanks for adding feature to this driver, the code looks good to me.

I'm just have a bit of curious on how the ipmi_ssif in host side to work
with this mechanism? Will there be patches for ipmi_ssif to use this
feature followed?

Thanks and Best regards,

Hi Quan,

Sorry for the late reply.
This implementation is only tested with our BIOS team, and they are
not using linux driver for ssif feature.
At moment, we don't have plan to add changes in ipmi_ssif.

Thanks,
Potin
