I'm still curious about this and didn't see it answered in the thread.
You mentioned "watchdog timer, sensors and power control" but what
exactly should they expose?
Do you want to expose host sensors - the challenge is that they don't
reflect the hardware that the virtual machine sees? Or do you want to
have synthetic sensors - which virtual sensors are useful to have?
Is the IPMI watchdog useful, QEMU already supports the i6300esb PCI
watchdog (see qemu -watchdog option documentation)?
Some use cases that illustrate how the guest is going to use IPMI
would be interesting and could help guide the discussion.
