Crate libmctp

libMCTP is a MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol) implementation for Rust.

libMCTP aims to implement the MCTP protocol as described in the DMTF DSP2016 specification.

MCTP allows multiple transport layers, the protocols supported by this library include:

• SMBus/I2C version 1.2.0. See DMTF DSP0237

libMCTP does not send or receive any data. Instead it generates [u8] arrays that contain all of the bytes that should be sent. It also decodes [u8] arrays. This allows you to use your own SMBus/I2C implementation.

Developers wanting to use this as a library should focus on the relevant transport layer context. For example, for SMBus support use the MCTPSMBusContext struct in the smbus module.
