We're doing some testing with openib btl on a system with Solaris. It
looks like Solaris can return POLLIN|POLLRDNORM in revents from a poll
call. I looked at the manpages for Linux and it reads like Linux could
possibly do this too. However the code in btl_openib_async_thread that
checks for valid revents is only checking for POLLIN and in the case it
gets POLLIN|POLLRDNORM the btl ends up throwing an error. I think
erroring out on the POLLIN|POLLRDNORM case is a bug.
Does anyone feel otherwise and can explain to me why we should not
consider POLLIN|POLLRDNORM as a valid condition? I have the same
question pertaining to POLLRDBAND too but I don't believe we've seen
this set.
thanks,
