I have downloaded the kernel src from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.18.8.tar.gz
I have gunzip and untarred the directory.
In the file linux-2.6.18.8/include/linux/fs.h. Here is the structure
definition of inode. When I look below the i_private ptr does not exist.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Jeff

I don't think you are actually using the kernel from kernel.org:
we test-build these nightly.
Quoting Jeffrey Wong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Subject: RE: Trouble installing OFED1.2 with kernel
Well when I try to compile I get an error message saying i_private is not a
member of the inode structure when trying to compile the ulp/iboip and the
ib_ipath modules. I'm using the 2.6.18-8 kernel src from kernel.org.
Any reasons why I would be getting this error message?
Thanks,
Jeff

OFED 1.2 supports the RHEL5 kernel. Shouldn't the Centos kernel be identical?
