I don't see the connection (since we only need de-register, let's just call it flush and be done with it), but fine. Please propose an API then. > Registration could be global, or per port.

Probably global for ib_addr, per port for ib_sa: we don't want to force ib_addr users to deal with devices. -- MST _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
