Oh, thanks, I didn't mean for you to do all that work.. But I won't be able to get to it till after SC|09 which is like the 23rd, so maybe it is best if there is some OFED related deadline. Aside from testing and breaking up the remaining things I wanted to review/adjust: - David's notes on the patch - The rdma_resolve_ip should require src/dst have the same family - The arp checking paths needs to be examinined as per my post - The arp reply waiting code may be better done by holding the dst and not polling on route lookups. - Review the private data handling and check that mixed family cases work as they should It was my intent to capture everything David had done in that big patch, but I may have missed something. My intuition is that the fixups to the ARP/ND code will matter for IPv6, particularly multi-port link local cases, but I'm not 100% sure on that. For full IPv6 support the 2 multicast patches you already reviewed will need to included in OFED as well.
