I expanded the ofa_kernel srpm and commented out that section of ipoib_cm.c, rebuilt the srpm, re-ran the install and it worked. It would be nice to have a switch to supply to the installer to disable ipv6 in the future.
thx-

Yes there is, I had the same problem last month.
I'm just not sure what it is the option you need. I'm not at work so I
can't check what I did.
Anyway there is a CONFIG_IPV6 and CONFIG_IPV6_MODULE used in a #ifdef in
drivers/infiniband/ulp/ipoib_cm.h
I guess you could set some flag to force them undefined but there should
and probably is a cleaner way.

Ah.. thanks.  (when I installed, I just told it to install all)

[r...@host jenos]# modprobe ib_ipoib
FATAL: Error inserting ib_ipoib
(/lib/modules/2.6.27.5-41.fc9.x86_64/updates/kernel/drivers/infiniband/ulp/ipoib/ib_ipoib.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Then dmesg shows this line:
ib_ipoib: Unknown symbol icmpv6_send

I have IPv6 disabled on this host for other reasons.  Perhaps that's
causing the problem?  If so, is there a way to build w/o IPv6
requirements?
thx-

ib_ipoib device ib0 does not seem to be present, delaying
initialization.

You need the ib_ipoib module to be able to use ipoib.
Did you put the right option (--with_ipoib_mod or something like
this) when running ./configure  for ofa_kernel?
Try to run modprobe ib_ipoib.
If it works then, add ipoib to your /etc/infiniband/openib.conf so
it'll be loaded by openibd.
If it doesn't, so check syslog, dmesg and other logs to see it it was
an error or simply the file is missing
If it's missing, recompile your ofa_kernel with the ipoib module.
