Hi Hal,

Sure will test it out. I see no issue in this fix. I have run the following test overnight
in a script with yesterday's code

1. Start opensm
2. Ping another  node over IB
3. Run osmtest (osmtest -f c, osmtest -f a)
4. Kill opensm with -9 signal and repeat over

The failures are  captured in a log.

This has run more than 2500 times without resource leak issues. I saw about 150 osmtest
failures which I will followup with another mail. Once opensm failed to start  correctly with SUBNET UP message in the log.

Does the patch below do what you want ? Can you try it ?
