OK, but doesn't it contradict the approach you agreed on?

  What do you think of the following approach?
  Instead of adding creation flags to the qp_init_attr, I can add a new verb:
  ibv_qp *create_qp_extended(struct ibv_pd *pd, struct ibv_qp_init_attr,
  *init_attr, enum ibv_qp_create_flags create_flags)
 
  I'm aware that adding a new verb isn't optimal, but at least we can
  avoid incrementing the libibverbs version.

I think this new verb seems like a better approach right now.

  

When will we have all patches ready?
It must be this week if you still want it in OFED 1.4

Tziporet,

Ron cannot work with Roland's tree,
because not all XRC patches are there.

  

But he should prepare us patches for OFED, or maybe we skip this?

Hi all. I'm very sorry all the SPAM happened. Unfortunately, I left on

A big thank you to Jeff Squyres for stepping in. I'll see about 
upgrading Mailman to the latest version on the current OFA server.


We are in the midst of transitioning to the new server (which has a 
much more recent version of Mailman, and will be upgraded on a timely 
basis). Unfortunately, I am very busy trying to get NFS-RDMA backports 
ready for OFED 1.4, and as I believe this is a higher priority, I 
don't really have much time to tend to the server switchover. If 
anyone would like to help, I'd greatly appreciate it. In fact, if 
someone else wants to replace me as admin  (I've been doing it over a 
year now), I wouldn't mind (although I'm perfectly happy to continue - 
just much busier than when I started). Please let me know. Thanks, and 
again, apologies for the SPAM.



Jeff,
Can you allow non members of the EWG list to send mails to the list now?
Will you participate in the EWG meeting today so we can have an update 
on the status of this?


Thanks

I changed the status of both EWG and general lists so that posts from 
non-members are held pending approval. This is to prevent another 
spam-bomb from occurring. I checked the version of Mailman available for 
the current server, and ours is up to date for our distro: Ubuntu 
Dapper. The new server has Ubuntu Hardy so a newer version of Mailman is 
available.


Will you participate in the EWG meeting today so we can have an update 
on the status of this?



Sure. Talk to you soon.

[ewg] removing stgt from being compiled on specific architectures

2008-08-25 Thread Doron Shoham
Hi Vlad,

I want to remove stgt from being compiled on ia64 and ppc64 architectures.
I added the following lines to sub set_availability on install.pl:

if ($arch =~ m/ppc|ia/) {
$packages_info{'tgt-generic'}{'available'} = 0;
}

but it didn't work - it got compiled anyway.

What is the correct way for doing so?

Thanks,
Doron

Thanks for reporting this.  I've uploaded a new version of the srpm that
addresses this and should resolve the problem.  The latest.txt file has
been updated to point to this newer version.
