I'm trying to help the 1.3 ofa_kernel package along with figuring out which backport patches to use for my kernel source (because the kernel version does not work nicely with ofed_patch.sh's get_backport_dir() function) and there seems to be an inconsistent use of --with-backport-patches between configure and ofed_patch.sh.
ofed_patch.sh takes the following arguments:
--with-backport-patches)
WITH_BACKPORT_PATCHES="yes"
WITH_PATCH="yes"
;;
--without-backport-patches)
WITH_BACKPORT_PATCHES="no"
;;
--with-backport)
shift
BACKPORT_DIR=$1
;;
--with-backport=*)
BACKPORT_DIR=`expr "x$1" : 'x[^=]*=\(.*\)'`
;;
and configure takes the following backport patches arguements:
--with-backport-patches)
ofed_patch_params="$ofed_patch_params $1"
;;
--without-backport-patches)
ofed_patch_params="$ofed_patch_params $1"
;;
As you can see configure accepts "--with[out]-backport-patches <arg>"
arguments and simply passes them on to ofed_patch.sh, however it does
not accept the "--with-backport" argument to actually specify a set to
use.
