Hi, I just finished building 1.8.6 and master on our cluster and noticed that for both, XRC support wasn't being detected because it didn't detect the IBV_SRQT_XRC declaration:
checking whether IBV_SRQT_XRC is declared... (cached) no ... checking if ConnectX XRC support is enabled... no checking if ConnectIB XRC support is enabled... no Both of these builds had --enable-openib-connectx-xrc. Having a look in the config.log, I found this: configure:191690: checking whether IBV_SRQT_XRC is declared configure:191690: gcc -std=gnu99 -c -O3 -DNDEBUG -finline-functions -fno-strict-aliasing -pthread -I/short/z00/bjm900/build/openmpi/openmpi-1.8.6/opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc191/hwlo c/include -I/short/z00/bjm900/build/openmpi/openmpi-1.8.6/build/gnu/opal/mca/hwloc/hwl oc191/hwloc/include -I/short/z00/bjm900/build/openmpi/openmpi-1.8.6/opal/mca/event/libevent2021/ libevent -I/short/z00/bjm900/build/openmpi/openmpi-1.8.6/opal/mca/event/libevent2021/ libevent/include -I/short/z00/bjm900/build/openmpi/openmpi-1.8.6/build/gnu/opal/mca/event/lib event2021/libevent/include conftest.c >&5 conftest.c: In function 'main': conftest.c:718: error: 'IBV_SRQT_XRC' undeclared (first use in this function) conftest.c:718: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once conftest.c:718: error: for each function it appears in.) configure:191690: $? = 1 If you have a look at the test program, the failure is because it forgets to include the infiniband/verbs.h header, and sure enough the configure script bears this out: ac_fn_c_check_decl "$LINENO" "IBV_SRQT_XRC" "ac_cv_have_decl_IBV_SRQT_XRC" "$ac_includes_default" Changing "$ac_includes_default" to "#include <infiniband/verbs.h>" and reconfiguring allows it to detect this declaration and then enable support for XRC: checking whether IBV_SRQT_XRC is declared... (cached) yes ... checking if ConnectX XRC support is enabled... yes checking if ConnectIB XRC support is enabled... yes Cheers, Ben
