Todd, We do not remove libibcommon in 1.4.1 So - if having this library is important for 1.5 can someone from Qlogic take care for it?

This breaks the ABI defined for XRC. So I guess these patches are not
really intended to be applied?
I definitely want to finish up XRC before starting to look at this
series in detail anyway.
Roland,
on top of which trees would like me to rebase the patches on and update
the ABI version?

NFSRDMA: NFS backport for 2.6.22
This patch provides the NFS backport for 2.6.22. Since the RDMA
infrastructure does not work for this kernel release, only TCP
support has been tested. It passes Connectathon as a client and server.

I should have the backports for 2.6.25 and 2.6.22 done today. I'll roll the
fox for this into those changes.
Thanks,

[ewg] RE: [ofa-general] [PATCH 0/9] RDMAoE - RDMA over Ethernet
Let's just say that at this point I completely disagree with where these patches try to abstract the differences, which are many. RDMA apps that want to use this and IB without going through an abstraction will need different code -- just like they would for iWarp, which also provides RDMA over Ethernet, and is a standard. IB mad and SA query modules are not appropriate places for abstracting the differences between IB, iWarp, and whatever name we give this. This could change depending on whether this is really trying to be IB with a different L2, or is just another RDMA protocol that runs on Ethernet. - Sean Sean, These are indeed real concerns; I know that the cma is the natural place for abstracting transport differences, but I am worried about non-cma Infiniband ULPs which can work just as well with RDMAoE (perhaps we can specifically expose RDMAoE path queries as a simple library function). We will rethink our approach to SA queries and post new patches shortly. Note that without SA query emulation, the RDMAoE patches really amount to just a few cosmetic changes to ib_core...:) Thanks for the feedback. --Liran ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg

[ewg] [PATCH OFED-1.5] install.pl: modify kernels supported by NFSRDMA
Currently, the only vanilla kernels that are supported are 2.6.22,
2.6.25, and 2.6.30. This patch modifies the install.pl to only work for
those.
With the removal of RHEL5.1 support, the kernel check for RHEL should
not install for it.
