Actually, since that GPUDirect is not yet officially released, but you may want to contact h...@mellanox.com to get the needed info and when the drivers will be released. Thanks!

Hi Brice, You will need the MLNX_OFED with the GPUDirect support in order to work. I will check to there's a release of it that supports SLES and let you know. [pak@maia001 ~]$ /sbin/modinfo ib_core filename: /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.nvel5/updates/kernel/drivers/infiniband/core/ib_core.ko <snip...> parm: gpu_direct_enable:Enable GPU Direct [default 1] (int) parm: gpu_direct_shares:GPU Direct Calls Number [default 0] (int) parm: gpu_direct_pages:GPU Direct Shared Pages Number [default 0] (int) parm: gpu_direct_fail:GPU Direct Failures Number [default 0] (int) Once that IB driver is loaded, you should find that there are additional counters being available from ib_core. And if you are using GPUDirect, the gpu_direct_shares and gpu_direct_pages counters will be incremented. The counters are located at: /sys/module/ib_core/parameters/gpu_direct_shares /sys/module/ib_core/parameters/gpu_direct_pages Regards, - Pak -----Original Message----- From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Brice Goglin Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 11:14 AM To: Open MPI Users Subject: Re: [OMPI users] anybody tried OMPI with gpudirect?

So I guess my OFED kernel modules aren't ok. I'll check on Mellanox website (we have some very recent Mellanox ConnectX QDR boards). thanks Brice _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users
