Hi Vlad,

I'm working now on the backports for redhat4.

There are differences in the declaration of functions in 
drivers/base/attribute_container.c and 
kernel_addons/backport/2.6.9_U4/include/linux/attribute_container.h
For example, in drivers/base/attribute_container.c:
attribute_container_classdev_to_container(struct device *classdev)
and in kernel_addons/backport/2.6.9_U4/include/linux/attribute_container.h:
struct attribute_container *attribute_container_classdev_to_container(struct 
class_device *);

The drivers/base/attribute_container.c in ofed1.4 is different then in ofed1.3
while the kernel_addons/backport/2.6.9_U4/include/linux/attribute_container.h 
is the same.

Due to this,redhat4 backports failed.

Why attribute_container.c file was changed?

Can you fix that?



Thanks,
Doron



Hi Doron,
OFED-1.3 based on 2.6.24 kernel, while OFED-1.4, currently, based on 2.6.26-rc8.
drivers/base/attribute_container.c - is the part of the kernel and it was 
changed in the kernel git tree.
So, you should change 
kernel_addons/backport/2.6.9_U[4-6]/include/linux/attribute_container.h and, 
may be, other
ISER backport patches in a such way that RHEL4.0U[4-6] backports will work.

Regards,
Vladimir
