In addition to the MTU, another obvious issue is the active_speed attribute on the ibv_port_attr. On the kernel side, it's an enum (IB_SPEED_SDR through IB_SPEED_EDR), but there's no corresponding enum names in libibverbs. It would be good to make this value a non-enum-int, too. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/ -- 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
