NOTE #1 
HOW TO CREATE THESE PATCHES 
1) cd /tmp/ipmitool-1.8.11
2) mkdir a (this directory contains the original file)
3) Copy original file to "a" subdirectory
4) Repeat above for directory "b" (this directory contains the changed file)
5) Copy changed file to "b" subdirectory
6) cd /tmp/ipmitool-1.8.11
7) diff -uNr a b > ipmitool.patch

NOTE #2
ENABLE THE SSL
Before running the build operation, the openssl-devel should be installed on the build env to make sure the ssl can be enabled for the generated ipmitool package.
You can run the 'ldd ipmitool' to see whether the 'libcrypto.so.x' has been added as a dependency to check whether the ssl has been enabled.
