All SMI code has different behavior if it is running on a switch or HCA, so testing for 'switchyness' is very appropriate here. cap_is_switch_smi would be a nice refinement to let us drop nodetype. I don't have a problem with sharing the IBA constant names for MAD structures (like RDMA_NODE_IB_SWITCH) between IB and OPA code. They already share the structure layouts/etc. Jason -- 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
