> OFED March 24 meeting summary about OFED 1.4 and 1.3.1 plans:
>
1.3.1 Release:
As we decided we should do a release in 2-3 month after 1.3.
In addition if there are any special fixes as outcome from the interop
we can do a release earlier.
All - please send me your requests for fixed issues and needed time
frame and I will publish 1.3.1 schedule based on this.
OFED 1.4:
> 1. Kernel base: since we target 1.4 release to Sep we target the
> kernel base to be 2.6.27
This is a good target, but we may need to stay with 2.6.26 if the
kernel progress will not be aligned.
> 2. Suggestions for new features:
> * NFS-RDMA
> * Verbs: Reliable Multicast (to be presented at Sonoma)
> * SDP - Zero copy (There was a question on IPv6 support - seems no
> one interested for now)
> * IPoIB - continue with performance enhancements
> * Xsigo new virtual NIC
> * New vendor HW support - non was reported so far (IBM and Chelsio
> - do you have something?)
> * OpenSM:
