Does MVAPICH* use them?  What about non-MPI ULPs / applications?

Don't you already look at device IDs?  Or do you mean that the iwarp
stuff isn't released?

I mean that the OMPI doesn't support iWARP until our next release series (v1.3). So yes, we've been looking at IB vendor/part ID's for a long time. But the issue is no big deal for iWARP devices because we haven't released iWARP-capable OMPI yet.

One question is whether we want to change (fix?) the ipath driver to use
OUI.  Strict IB spec compliances says we should.


FWIW, OMPI checks these values for QL HCAs:

-----
[QLogic InfiniPath]
vendor_id = 0x1fc1
vendor_part_id = 13
use_eager_rdma = 1
mtu = 2048

[QLogic InfiniPath]
vendor_id = 0x1fc1,0x1077
vendor_part_id = 16,29216
use_eager_rdma = 1
mtu = 4096
-----

Translation: vendor_id values 0x1fc1 and 0x1077.
