Subject: [PATCH 1/6] ipmi: decreases the IPMI message transaction time in interrupt mode
Date: Fri, 03 Feb 2012 09:47:54 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1328284079-5489-1-git-send-email-cminyard@mvista.com> (raw)

From: Srinivas_Gowda <srinivas_g_gowda@dell.com>

Call the event handler immediately after starting the next message.

This change considerably decreases the IPMI transaction time (cuts off
~9ms for a single ipmitool transaction).
