You recall that this was a change you suggested in response to the

Jeff includes more detail about the commit that actually broke this:
committer Jack Morgenstein <ja...@dev.mellanox.co.il>

commit 1f462241bd18d9b5727ddea90459e7763b69e11c
backports: 2.6.16_sles10_sp2: patches and add-ons based on kernel 2.6.18
backport
Then this kernel requires another backport directory based on 2.6.16_sles10_sp2
under
kernel_patches/backport/ and kernel_addons/backport/ with corresponding change
in ofed_scripts/get_backport_dir.sh
(E.g. 2.6.16_sles10_sp2_lustre).
^^^^^^
This breakage has got nothing to do with Lustre, per Jeff's report. In
any case, creating an entire new and mostly duplicate backport for a
single change that is simply not portable seems like a sledgehammer of a
solution, no?
Please prepare backports for this kernel and I'll apply it to the OFED's 1.5
kernel git tree.
I don't think I am going to have to time to prepare an entire backport
(nor do I believe it's the correct solution) for this problem, but it
seems it must be fixed before GA per Jeff's independent report of the
same failure or anyone using this newer SLES10_SP2 kernel will run into
this problem.
Cheers,

Ok, I will provide some solution next week.
Regards,
Vladimir
