Hello Rupert,

Sorry but I'm not aware of any code in ib_srp that could make module unload 
crash. However, the patch I just posted on this mailing list should fix a 
deadlock that could be triggered by module unload on
pre-2.6.36 kernels. Regarding the screenshot attached to
http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2374: several essential 
pieces of information are missing from that screenshot. E.g. 
was the kernel reporting a BUG: or just an INFO: message that a task was 
blocked for more than 120s ? The call trace itself is missing too. Such 
information can be collected either via a serial console or by gathering kernel 
logs on a remote system via netconsole.

Bart.

[ewg] Not ready for OFED-3.5 GA

2012-10-11 Thread Elken, Tom
Hi Vlad, Tziporet, and Woody

We have discovered some bugs in OFED 3.5 RC2, likely in the qib driver, that we 
are in the process of fixing.  Thus, we would not want there to be a OFED-3.5 
GA yet.  Can we have another RC after our fixes go in?

There is also an SRP compile error on SLES 11 SP 2 that I reported last week.

Nes driver is also not ready for OFED-3.5 GA. We are in the process of fixing 
issues, causing failure for the nes driver interoperability with Chelsio cxgb4 
(on OFED-3.5-rc2) http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2388

Thank you

We are still seeing some issues with the SRP module during our testing at
UNH-IOL. We can now load the module and run the tests but whenever we unload
the module it causes a system crash.

I will update the bug with this information.
