The IPMI spec states: The purpose of the SPMI Table is to provide a mechanism that can be used by the OSPM (an ACPI term for “OS Operating System-directed configuration and Power Management” essentially meaning an ACPI-aware OS or OS loader) very early in the boot process, e.g., before the ability to execute ACPI control methods in the OS is available. When we are probing IPMI in Linux, ACPI control methods are available, so we shouldn't be probing using SPMI. It could cause some confusion during the probing process.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
