Ian has already implemented APIs to extract IPMI configuration data from
the hardware. ipmi-probe.c abstracts PCI (pcilocate.c and SMBIOS (smbios.c)
drivers.

ipmi_probe_info_t*
 ipmi_probe (ipmi_interface_t type, ipmi_probe_info_t* pinfo, int* statusp); 

Fish compile-time settings can be overridden through configuration file.

Current code in fish to determine ip-ports will also be re-written to
use ipmi_probe.
