Hmmm...I'd like to put my $.02 in here. I don't have any visibility
into what drives the OFED schedule, so I have no clue as to why people
don't want to slip the schedule for this change. I'm sure you guys have
your reasons. However, I also happen to be a consumer of this code, and
I know for a fact that no one has gotten my input on this issue. So,
the deal is that I'm currently integrating OFED 1.3 into what will be
RHEL5.2. The RHEL5.2 freeze date has already passed, but in order to
keep what finally goes out from being too stale, I'm being allowed to
submit the OFED-1.3-rc1 code prior to freeze, and then update to
OFED-1.3 final during our beta test process. What this means, is that
anything you punt from 1.3 to 1.3.1, you are also punting out of RHEL5.2
and RHEL4.7. So, that being said, there's a whole trickle down effect
with various groups that would really like to be able to use 5.2 out of
the box that may prefer a slip in 1.3 so that this can be part of it
instead of punting to 1.3.1. I'm not saying this will change your mind,
but I'm sure it wasn't part of the decision process before, so I'm
bringing it up.
Thanks for the input (BTW you are welcome to join our weekly meetings
and give us feedback online)
I think it is important to make sure RH new versions will include best
OFED release
This my suggestion is:
* Delay 1.3 release in a week
* Do RC4 next week - Feb 6
* Add RC5 on Feb 18 - this will be the GOLD version
* GA release on Feb 25
All - please reply if this is acceptable
760 major [EMAIL PROTECTED] UDP performance on Rx is lower
than Tx - for 1.3.1
761 major [EMAIL PROTECTED] Poor and jittery UDP
performance at small messages - for 1.3.1
Ditto for requesting these two be in 1.3. We've already had customers
bring up the UDP performance issue in our previous releases.
We will push some fixes of these to RC4 if the above plan is accepted
