While working on the openIB port for PVFS2, I've stumbled across some problems in posting rdma requests via the user-verbs interface with ib_mthca drivers.

According to a 'TODO' buried in the gen2 src/linux-kernel/infiniband/hw/  :
"MW support:   ib_mthca does not support memory windows"

The opcodes that I receive for non-rdma requests are all correct,
however, when posting rdma requests, I'm consistently getting work completions with opcodes of:
IBV_WC_BIND_MW

I'm not making any (known) calls or requests to bind to a memory window, or for that matter to create a memory window. So how does a completion event get generated with an opcode indicating a currently unimplemented feature has just finished? And are there other reasons why I should/would be getting this type of completion?

Thanks,
   Kyle
