Sorry we will be at IBTA Plugfest. We decided to use 4.17-1 because 5.3 was
not ready.

[ewg] Spring Debug event is cancelled

[Rupert Dance - SFI]

Hi Arlin,

 

The OFA IWG Spring Debug event is cancelled - see attached.

 

However the IBTA Plugfest will be held from April 8th ==> April 19th and
will include both HDR and 200 GbE device and cable testing. So if we get
OFED 4.17-1 to RC2 or GA, we could consider using this build.

 

https://www.infinibandta.org/plugfest/

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Re: [ewg] OFA EWG Meeting: Monday, Jan 28th, 2019 - Cancelled

[Rupert Dance - SFI]

I vote for a quick turnaround on OFED 4.17-1 because it should be easy and
this way we make sure we do not have major OS releases that are not covered
by OFED. 

 

I also feel the move to 5.0 will take more time since we have to incorporate
the changes from 4.18 and 4.19 as well as 5.0

In the meantime, help decide OFED-next by sending your preference (4.17-1 or

[ewg] CANCELLED

[Rupert Dance - SFI]

Hi All,

 

Alan and I have decided to give you a little extra time for Christmas
shopping and so we are cancelling today's EWG Meeting.

 

The CIWG team is continuing its FEC testing and Interop testing and will
have some additional latency measurement results along with some
repeatability information at our next meeting. 

 

We also had another good meeting discussing FEC and Interoperability
failures at last week's CIWG meeting and the recording is available here.

 

https://cw.infinibandta.org/wg/EWG/document/8390 

 

Thanks and talk to you next week,

 

Rupert

Re: [ewg] Failure to build OFED 4.8 on RHEL 7.2 with native kernel

[Rupert Dance]

Hi Ram,

There are still some backports that are not complete and qib is one of them.
Here is a suggested work around from Vlad back on 11/2/2016

  _  

There are no QIB backports yet in OFED-4.8.

If you work on RHEL7.2 then use the following configuration parameters:

# ./configure --with-core-mod --with-user_mad-mod --with-user_access-mod
--with-addr_trans-mod --with-mlx4-mod --with-mlx4_en-mod --with-ipoib-mod

  _  

There may be some other modules that have been added since 11/2/2016 but
this should get you started. 

 

Here is what I see for srpms listed in OFED-4.8-20161120-0830.tgz

 


srpms in OFED-4.8-20161120-0830.tgz

Inside rdma_core






 


srpms in OFED-3.18-2.tgz




 

Hope this helps

 

Rupert

Subject: [ewg] Failure to build OFED 4.8 on RHEL 7.2 with native kernel

 

Hi All,

I have downloaded the latest OFED build OFED-4.8-20161120-0830 and tried to
install it on RHEL 7.2, with native kernel 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64.

I was expecting it to build well since the readme states under section "1.2
Supported Platforms and Operating Systems":

  o   Linux Operating Systems:

- RedHat EL7.2  3.10.0-327.el7

- SLES123.12.28-4

- SLES12.1  3.12.49-11.1

- kernel.org4.8*

 

The build failed on 'qib', and when I disabled all vendors it still failed
but this time on iser.

 

The iSER failure:

 
/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/compat-rdma-4.8/drivers/infiniband/ulp/iser/iscsi
_iser.h:51:23: fatal error: scsi/iser.h: No such file or directory

#include 

This hints that a kernel version higher than 4.4  is required because that
specific file was first introduced in kernel 4.5.

 

(the qib failure was similar - implicit declaration for a function
introduced in a newer kernel).

 

Perhaps there's a step I've missed in the installation?

Is this combination supposed to work? Has anyone tried it?

 

Thanks,

Ram

Hey Arlin, I have a conflict and cannot make today’s call.  
  
My status update: I’m beginning work on cxgb* for both RHEL7.2 and SLES12
SP1 this week.  I’m slightly confused as to why I’m seeing the compile
problem with OFED-4.8 compiling on linux-4.8.   I didn’t hear from Vlad
regarding my compat patch, and I don’t think he merged it…

  
Steve.

Open Items - Licensing – an OFA Software user wants and answer to this
question:

 

Is there a scenario where the kernel driver sources can ever be used in a
non-GPL scenario?  Specifically, if you compile any of the OFED kernel
driver sources in either a kernel.org kernel or a distro kernel (or any
derivative of a kernel.org kernel), they become GPL -- regardless of whether
the person who downloaded OFED said "I declare this download to be BSD!" or
"I declare this download to be GPL!"

 

If there's no case where the kernel driver sources distributed in OFED can
ever be used with anything other than GPL, is there a reason to dual-license
them?

 

 

Next Meeting: September 14, 2015

 

Thanks

[ewg] FW: ib_reg_phys_mr() verb to be removed from Linux kernel

[Rupert Dance]

Hi All,

Could all of your teams review this request and get back to me.

Thanks

Rupert

-Original Message-
From: Chuck Lever [mailto:chuck.le...@oracle.com] 
Sent: Tuesday, July 14, 2015 5:24 PM
To: Rupert Dance
Subject: ib_reg_phys_mr() verb to be removed from Linux kernel

Hi Rupert-

There's been a vigorous discussion of the IB verbs API in the Linux kernel
recently on linux-r...@vger.kernel.org.

One item that has come up is that folks would like to remove
ib_reg_phys_mr() for kernel consumers because it is obsolete.

Are you aware of any out-of-tree kernel consumers who might still use this
API?

If that is the case, I'd suggest we just document the known issues in
OFED-3.18 and pull libfabric 1.0.1 into OFED-3.18-1.

Even if we have a fix within a day, the fix would just now go into 1.0.1rc1.
The official 1.0.1 release, which is what you really want in OFED 3.18,
wouldn't be until the end of this month.  We would need time to test the
other bug fixes that went in between 1.0 and 1.0.1.

Re: [ewg] OFA EWG Meeting Minutes

[Rupert Dance]

There are a couple of issues we have decided to defer until 3.18-1. Right
now we are getting all of the release notes updated and then we are going to
release RC3.

 

Note: I am travelling this week so replies may be delayed.

[ewg] Transition

[Rupert Dance]

To the OFA Members:

 

I wanted to let you know that I have turned over the responsibility for the
OFA IWG - it is time to let someone else lead. I want to thank all of you
for the opportunity to create and lead the OFA Interoperability Program for
the last 10 years. I released the first Interop Test Plan (Release .50) on
April 11, 2006 and as an editor and regular technical contributor, I have
seen it go though many significant improvements over the last 50 releases. I
have enjoyed working with all of the engineers and member companies who have
participated in the IWG and in the semi-annual Interoperability Test Events
that we have been conducting since 2007. I will be continuing my work with
the OFA EWG as the EWG OFED release program manager but will not co-chair
the group. 

 

These changes will provide a little extra time so that I may pursue some
technical projects that I have planned for some time. I will remain engaged
with the OFA and look forward to working with all of the teams that have
produced such an amazing collection of OpenFabrics Software for High
Performance Computing and for Enterprise Data Centers.

 

Thank you,

Re: [ewg] openfabrics site down?

[Rupert Dance]

Hi All,

 

I notified the System Admin on Friday at 7:30 AM and he is aware of it. He
feels the system may have been hacked and the Website team is working to
bring up our new site which uses a more current and secure content
management system.

 

Thanks

Re: [ewg] [GIT PULL OFED 3.12] - Build intel-mic-psm as needed

[Rupert Dance]

Hi Tom,

Do you have an update regarding the needed patch for the Xeon Phi? We would
like to release OFED 3.12-1 RC4 and I think we are still waiting for a final
update from Intel.

Thanks

Hi Rupert,

The report from Jubin John  from Monday:
Mike identified some patches that needed rework to meet usual OFED/upstream
standards:
The reworked patches should be ready by end of this week (Fri 11/14)

Also, Our testing revealed a bug when using multiple Phi cards and one HCA.
That bug fix needed to be scoped and investigated.

Jubin, do you have an estimate on the time needed to fix that bug, or can
you give us a date when you will have that estimate?

Cheers,
-Tom

Does this resolve all issues for Intel with OFED 3.12-1 rc3? Can we now
proceed with rc4 or are there still issues to resolve in Bug 2508:

commit df8c9cfe9663a2f4d17ea3eddf319f76e9b7c393
Author: Jubin John 
Date:   Mon Oct 27 17:29:39 2014 -0700

install.pl: Remove kernel version check for qib/ipathverbs

The new compat/compat-rdma scheme allows for all
x86_64 kernels <= 3.12 to compile qib.  This testing is a
vestige of the OFED 1.5.x and a lingering maintenance
issue.

This patch deletes the test.

Hi Pradeep,

 

Thanks for the follow up. I agree with your conclusion about 2489 and 2507
because I am hoping to get all the updates I need for RC3 by the end of this
week and then I will do RC3. So I will add these as known issues to the
Release Notes.

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Hi Rupert,

 

2490 was verified but 2489 still fails under certain conditions.

We also saw 2507 which is a new bug.

 

I guess given that we are nearing RC3  milestone we may have to look at
fixing these in OFED-3.17 ?

 

Thanks,

Pradeep

Hi Diep,

SDP support was removed from OFED in version 3.5. Please see the attached

If you need support for sockets, please look into RSockets.

Re: [ewg] EWG Meeting Minutes

[Rupert Dance]

Tom,

 

Thanks for having your team review RC2. Vlad issues RC3 on target as we
agreed and there are very few changes but I have UNH-IOL checking the
changes particularly on the iWARP cluster since Tatyana submitted a perftest
change. 

 

Steve moved a couple of bugs (2482,2485,2487) to target the 3.12-1 release
and we were unable to replicate bug 2488
<http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2488>  on our systems.
I am still working with Shirley Ma on Bug 2449
<http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2449>  but I have
moved the target release to 3.12-1 because there is still a fair amount of
work to be done. 

 

So if all goes smoothly, I would like to release the GA next Monday as we
discussed. Please let me know if anyone has concerns or objections.

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Here is what we decided regarding the next release of OFED 3.12.

. Test OFED 3.12 RC2 the week of May 12th 

[Tom] 

Intel True Scale System Test has the following report:
We have tested OFED-3.12-rc2 covering qperf, RDMA, MPIs (OpenMPI-1.8.1,
mvapich2-1.9 and IntelMPI-4.1.1.036) and basic CLI commands. We haven't
found any new issues.

So looks good from our point-of-view.

-Tom

. Steve and Tatyana will complete their pending updates (see
minutes) and have them ready by 5/19/2014

. Maintainers should update their package release notes

. Vlad will release RC3 on Monday 5/19/2014

. We will take a week to test RC3 and then release OFED 3.12 GA on
5/26/2014.

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Hi all,

 

Just wanted to confirm that UNH-IOL ran the udapl tests on our InfiniBand
cluster and everything passed accordingly. They were using SL 6.4 and OFED
3.5-2 RC1.

 

Please let me know if there is going to be an updated DAPL package in the
next few days and I will create OFED 3.5-2 RC2 with the following changes:

 

. infinipath-psm-3.1-4_g60db457_open.tar.gz - fixes bug 2447

. ibcxgb4-1.3.1.tar.gz - updated stable release

. dapl-2.0.xx

. ???

 

If anyone else has updates, please let me know because we want this ready
for the IBTA and OFA test events which start on Monday October 7th.

 

Thanks

Hi John,

Exciting news about SLES 12 and the role of OFA Software. The EWG is
currently working on making the necessary changes to use the 3.11 kernel.
Vlad is making all the necessary changes to compat and compat-rdma and the
goal is to start having daily builds by the end of October or early
November.

Thanks

All,

We here at SUSE are beginning to look at the features we will include for
our next Enterprise Linux offering, SLE 12. OFED is a big part of this
release, and we are hoping to synchronize with the latest and greatest
provided by the Openfabrics Alliance.

I know that OFED 3.11 was mentioned back in June, but I can find no more

[ewg] FW: [CIWG] CIWG meeting will be on Thursday September 5th from 2-3 PM EST

[Rupert Dance]

Hello all,

 

I am forwarding this comment from Erdem Matoglu who works for Amphenol. He is 
concerned about the differences between the IBTA Spec and the IEEE Spec in 
regard to the HCB and the MCB.

 

Here are the documents he is referencing:

 

· IBTA Spec: Table 176 of Volume 2 Version 1.3.1: 
https://cw.infinibandta.org/wg/EWG/documentRevision/download/7446

o   See Attached document for Page 561

· IEEE Spec: P802d3bj_D2p1 – Section 92.11 - you need to have your own 
access to this spec.

· EDR Compliance Test Results for HCB + MCB 090313: 
https://cw.infinibandta.org/wg/EWG/document/7532

 

Thanks

Hi Rupert, 
Would you please take a look at Section 92.11 ? It seems to me that for the 
MCB, IEEE.3bj is more relaxed. 
For the HCB the IB requirement is more relaxed. Wilder is aiming for 2.2dB, but 
IEEE is asking for even lower loss. 
I think for the MCB the IEEE specification is doable. Even the attached 
presentation on Wilder HCB uses an MCB with 1.14dB IL. 
I also think that the HCB requirement and or the mated MCB-HCB requirement 
should somehow be relaxed in a controlled way for both standards. 

Regards,
Erdem

2, If declared __pskb_copy define a macro CONFIG_COMPAT_HAS___PSKB_COPY

3, Add ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT_HAS___PSKB_COPY at same place which you added.

Hi Andrew,

 

Thank you for submitting this issue. Could I get you to add this to OFA
Bugzilla   and we will have someone look into
it and see if we can resolve the problem. Please be sure to fill out all the

Subject: [ewg] IPoIB-CM - ib0: dev_queue_xmit failed to requeue packet

 

Hi list.

We're running a TCP middleware over IPoIB-CM (OFED-3.5-2) on Red Hat 6.4. We
intend to eventually run a multicast RDMA middleware on the stack.

The hardware stack is Dell R720s (some Westmere, mostly Sandy Bridge) with
bonded Mellanox MT26428 ConnectX-2 on two QLogc 12300 managed switches.
We're runnign the latest firmware on the HCAs and the switches.

We have been seeing the following messages in the kernel ring, which also
seems to coincide with page allocation errors:

ib0: dev_queue_xmit failed to requeue packet
ib0: dev_queue_xmit failed to requeue packet
ib0: dev_queue_xmit failed to requeue packet
ib0: dev_queue_xmit failed to requeue packet

These appear to be genuine drops, as we are seeing gaps in our middleware
which is then going on to re-cap.

We've just made a change to increase the page cache from ~90M to 128M - but
what is the lists feeling on the dev_queue_xmit errors? Could they be being
caused by the same issue? Unable to allocate pages in a timely manner
perhaps?

We're not running at anywhere near high messages rates (<1000 ~450b mps).

I can see a thread started in 2012 where someone had caused these
dev_queue_xmit using netperf and Roland had suggested that at worst one
packet was being dropped. Silence after this.

Has anyone seen this behavior, or got any pointers to chase this down?

Cheers,
-Andrew

Re: [ewg] ibv_devinfo: No IB devices found for qib?

[Rupert Dance]

Hello Mei,

 

Unfortunately OFED 3.5 does not support Ubuntu at this point. Please see the
release notes attached for a list of supported OSs. I have also "cc" the OFA
User list because there are some members who have worked with Ubuntu and
have provided support for InfiniBand using different versions of OFED. I
believe we will see some response.

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

· Tatyana Nikolova – Intel

· Tom Elken - Intel

· Rupert Dance – Software Forge

 

Updates

Vlad suggested via email that we name OFED 3.5 point releases using a hyphen
rather than a dot release. His reasoning is that the EWG is working to
insure that we stay synchronized with kernel.org and there is no such thing
a 3.5.1 or 3.5.2 kernel. So the EWG “point” releases will follow thins
format:

 

· OFED 3.5-1 not OFED 3.5.1

· OFED 3.5-2 not OFED 3.5.2

· etc

 

OFED Status

OFED 3.5-1

· OFED 3.5.1 RC1 released on 6/24/2013

o   This release is identical to OFED 3.5 except that it adds support for
RHEL 6.4. There are no new packages.

o   http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/OFED/ofed-3.5-1/OFED-3.5-1-RC1.tgz 

· OFED 3.5.1 RC2

o   Tom Elken from Intel mentioned that they have found an issue with the
Intel True Scale PSM package with RHEL 6.4. This affects both RHEL 6.3 and
RHEL 6.4. Tom wants to review the status and provide a fix which will be
available for RC2. There is a current work around using ZStream kernels

o   Pending the Intel fix – goal is July 15th

· OFED 3.5.1 GA 

o   After fixes have been applied in RC2 we will do a GA. Goal is end of
July.

 

OFED 3.5.2

· OFED 3.5.2 Daily Build released on 6/24/2013

o   This release support RHEL 6.4

· OFED 3.5.2 RC1

o   Woody mentioned that SLES-11 SP3 is about to be released and he would
like to include support for this OS. His team is already working on an
update for their MIC OFED version so he will provide the patches to do this
and we will include it in the OFED 3.5-2 Daily build before we do an RC. 

o   2 weeks after Tom Elken, Steve Wise, Tatyana and others have a chance to
review and communicate their plans with their teams.

· OFED 3.5.2 GA – target is early August 

 

OFED 3.11 or 3.12

· Goal is to start work in August 2013 and RC in October GA in time

Open Issues

Mellanox has requested that Software Forge (SFI) take over the maintenance
of OFED and so we have been making a transition from Vlad being the
maintainer to Rupert maintaining this project. Please notify me of any
updated packages and issues that you discover during testing. There are two
addresses that may be used:

· Rupert: rsda...@soft-forge.com

· SFI OFA Team: o...@soft-forge.com

The RDMA CM does not support APM.  You could use the RDMA CM to connect, but
would need to exchange alternate path information in band and modify the QP
directly to set the alternate path information and APM state.

Subject: [ewg] Support for MT27600, 15b3:1011

 

Hi,

Please reply to my mail ID since I am not part of the ewg mailing list.


I have a few mellanox cards with me with vendor ID:Device ID - 15b3:1011

These belong to the MT27600 (Connect-IB) family. For so long, I was using
OFED 1.5.3.1 on my systems, but it looks like the drivers do not support
these
cards. I even tried 1.5.4.1, and the card goes undetected with that too.

What version of OFED supports this hardware? I went through the release
notes
of 1.5.3/1.5.4/3.2/3.5 but none of them list Connect-IB explicitly in the
supported

HCA list.

Would greatly appreciate information on the above.

TIA,
Pavan

Re: [ewg] Is ofed-3.5 and 1.5.4.1 compatible?

[Rupert Dance]

Hello all,

I asked one of my engineers to do a few basic interoperability tests and
here is what he reported:

+
I re-installed OFED-1.5.4.1 on one system and had OFED-3.5 on another and
tried ping; sftp, ib_read_bw; ssh between the two systems. They all seem to
work without a problem.
++

This is far from exhaustive and I am sure there are features in 3.5 that are
not supported in 1.5.4.1. But certainly IPoIB and basic RDMA operations seem
to work well as did the OpenSM.

Thanks

Verbs are not the same since in 1.5.4.1 we had XRC support in user space.
Regarding protocols - IPoIB should be the same Not sure if it was tested.

Is there any change at protocol level that may break compatibility?

[ewg] FDR receiver tolerance testing

[Rupert Dance]

Hello All,

 

Question: which of the two equations should we use in the process of the
selection of cables for FDR receiver tolerance testing?

 

Mellanox has a question regarding the FDR receiver tolerance tests with
linear cables (described in section 6.7.8.1 of the InfiniBand Architecture
Specification Volume 2), specifically regarding the selection of cables for
the test.

 

Table 55 of  the InfiniBand Architecture Specification Volume 2 defines the
fitted insertion loss coefficients of the cables that should be used in the
tests, with a reference to clause 85.8.4.2 of the IEEE 802.3.2012 document.
However, there is a discrepancy between the ways the IEEE 802.3.2012
document and the InfiniBand Architecture Specification Volume 2 define the
relation between the fitted insertion loss 

 

and the mentioned coefficients - the equation used in the IEEE 802.3.2012
document is , 

 

The InfiniBand Architecture Specification Volume 2 defines the fitted
insertion loss as , where is the signaling frequency (14.0625 GHz). 

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

works. I have dropped the share to the EE and Phy Layer groups group because
it was sending out too many notices.

 

https://cw.infinibandta.org/wg/EWG/document/7408 

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Hi Rupert ... 

I'm told, when trying to access this note/link, that "You do not have

Could you upload to the IBTA EWG document site, perhaps? ...

[EWG-EE] New revision to document "Anritsu_IB_FDR_AOC_appnote" was uploaded
to High Speed Electrical Workgroup

 






High Speed Electrical Workgroup Members, 

A new revision of the Anritsu_IB_FDR_AOC_appnote document has been uploaded
by Rupert Dance. 

 <https://cw.infinibandta.org/wg/EWG-EE/document/7408>
Anritsu_IB_FDR_AOC_appnote 
Rev 2 

This is a first draft of the Active Cable Time Domain test procedure using
the Anritsu test equipment. This technical application paper and a
significant amount of the content was provided by Anritsu of Japan. It also
contains major contributions from many sources including diagrams created by
Hiroshi Goto (Anritsu) and by Cliff Cole (Intel) and all of the work done by
engineers who participated in PF21 & 22. 

Comment from creator: v2 - This is the latest Anritsu Application Note for
the Active Cable Time Domain (ATD) test procedure. They have made the
changes requested by the CIWG, EWG and MWG after review of the original
document. Anritsu intends to do another update to coordinate with the latest
ATD Block Diagrams and the MOI provided by Cliff on 2/28/2013.

Hi Tziporet,

IBM has just joined the OFILG last Friday and so we do not have any PPC
hardware. I am expecting to include their products in the testing for the
April 2013 Interop event.

Thanks

Hi Rupert,

 

My name is Michelle Cassinelli and I work with Paul at VTM. Paul is en route
to Seattle and requested I follow-up with you to let you know that the IBTA
email reflectors are working as of 5:15pm this evening. 

 

Our Web Services department has advised that the issues arose when a change
was made to the DNS entries this morning and the Kavi servers didn't notice
the change. We notified Kavi midday today but unfortunately it took awhile
to resolve because when the setting was fixed, another error related to the
Kavi spam filter came up which still caused emails to bounce. That's the
quick, high level answer but we're happy to delve more into the technical
specifics with our Web Services team if you would like more details.

 

We regret the downtime today and any inconvenience it caused to IBTA. If you
have questions or identify any other issues, please feel free to get in
touch with us tomorrow and we'll work to resolve them.

 

Thanks,
Michelle Cassinelli

It looks like the last issue lies in the Linux kernel itself. OFED 3.5 will
have to be matched to a kernel that has the proper patches. Otherwise, it is
very simple to crash the kernel. "Out-of-the-box" SL 6.3 does not have these
changes. There may be others as well. Most likely RHEL.

My test, which is detailed in the bug, does uncover this issue. The SRP test
for the Logo event will never see this issue. Even using the extended
(indirect) sg descriptors. That means that the current test is not
exercising the new feature. 

My goal is to make sure the OFED 3.5 release is married to the proper kernel
versions and distros.

How will the supported distros be listed in the release notes? Will we
(UNH-IOL and DDN) be testing all of potential kernels and distros?

Marty,

I know there are still a few issues you, Bart and Dave Dillow are working on
but it seems like many have been resolved. Can we give approval for RC3
knowing there will be some testing allowed before RC4 and GA. We will never
get OFED to 3.8 unless we release 3.5 so we can start working on 3.8!

Thanks

Hey Tziporet,

Chelsio is happy with the current OFED-3.5 bits at this point. There are a
few outstanding issues, but none to stop ship for.

We're ready to release.

Thanks,

Steve.
