I'll propose the following: 1. Add to libibumad/include/infiniband: umad_types.h - basic mad, rmpp headers umad_sa.h - SA attributes umad_cm.h - CM messages 2. Include umad_types.h and umad_sa.h from ib_types.h 3. Include umad_cm.h from ib_cm_types.h We start with a minimal set of definitions to umad and add/move other definitions later as needed, creating new header files where appropriate (umad_smi.h, umad_pm.h, etc.) If we can get some basic agreement on this, I'll start on the patches immediately. In an ideal world, the new header files would work on any platform. - 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
