Hi Steve. I only tested these against 2.6.30 (OFED 1.5.4 base). I haven't
gotten to backports yet. The main change is not to check out and build NFS,
since that conflicted with the distros. Anyway, any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I hope removing the fs/nfs* stuff doesn't break the backport kernels? IE the
_entire_ NFS subsystem might need to be
rebuilt and backported for the older kernels. I think that's why the original
code did this. We're seeing problems
with RHEL5.x and the OFED-1.5.4 NFSRDMA. Debugging now, but just wanted to
bring this up...
When Tziporet and I discussed this for OFED 1.5.4, we agreed that
NFSRDMA would be supported on newer distros (RHEL 6, SLES 11) which do
not need the fs/nfs stuff. If we need to support the older distros, we
probably do need fs/nfs since their kernels predate NFSRDMA, and all the
associated changes made in core NFS to support it. What do you think?
Thanks.
