Yes, see kernel_patches/fixes/mlx4_0010_add_wc.patch. With OFED 1.5, I am

I need 2 things:
1. macro pgprot_writecombine to be defined for PPC/PPC64 under the arch
directory (file arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable.h)
2. A way of determining (via the standard kernel) if write-combining is
available on a given platform (to allow disabling use of ConnectX blueflame in
userspace if WC is not available).
It seems that none of the issues are IB specific, correct? As for PPC
guys I think we have another open issue with them, regarding huge pages
support, a patch which isn't mainline. Maybe you can use the opportunity
to set
