I've pushed out release 1.0.12 of librdmacm. This incorporates several new APIs that should make connecting and transferring data over RDMA devices simpler for user applications, plus adds support for user space path record caching.
New APIs include simple wrappers for common verbs operations, such as memory registration, posting of work requests, and retrieving completions. Support for synchronous connection establishment was added, along with newer calls that combine the work done using multiple existing calls. To help address MPI scaling issues, this release provides support for IB ACM path record caching capabilities, enabled through the use of a compile time option. New client and server test applications were also added to demonstrate the use of the new APIs. (Note that the source code includes changes for AF_IB support, but AF_IB has been disabled in the code to avoid potential ABI compatibility issues until the kernel changes have been accepted upstream.) This version wants the soon to be released version of libibverbs, but will work with older versions installed. Please pull this release into OFED 1.5.2. I will provide a set of release notes next week. - Sean -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
