In fact, we are working on introducing qedr into OFED 4.8-1. So the presence of libqedr in rdma-core is welcomed.

If this helps, it is from 3/21 … to my knowledge the most recent summary sent by Doug Ledford. Updates from version 12: • Minor improvements to qedr provider • Add libpvrdma provider for VMWare rdma virt devices • Improved RoCE AH creation • Packet Pacing support • Various github build system improvements • Updates to Debian and Red Hat packaging • Timestamp support in mlx4 provider • Make the libibverbs/provider interface private • Clean up headers for improved multi-arch support • Add Verbs Direct support for mlx5 provider • Implement new, more specific multi-arch barrier methods • Update all providers to the modern registration method and remove ibv_register_driver entirely • Switch the code to use gcc endian conversion functions • Fix an endianness issue in srp_daemon • Implement a new release mechanism that should create more distro friendly tarballs based on the common release tagging format • Updates to make it possible to run sparse on rdma-core • Fixes found by running sparse on rdma-core • Fixes to travis tarball upload script • Fix to broken cmake test > On Apr 6, 2017, at 12:31 PM, Adit Ranadive wrote: > > On Wed, Apr 05, 2017 at 10:22:26PM +, Davis, Arlin R wrote: >> We need to finalize the changes going into RC2.

There are fairly trivial. However, you would have find out the various differences between rdma-core-12 and 13, f.e. bug fixes, functionality changes, etc. and how those impact the existing providers. The other thing I wanted to point out was regarding the Qlogic provider - rdma-core-12 added them as a user space provider but there isnt a kernel driver in OFED 4.8. I believe they were added as a provider in 4.9 kernel. Not sure, if that is an issue for you guys.
