However, see my comments accompanying the patch. This is a global change for all verbs -- and I'm not sure that it won't break some current applications. MPI is OK with this change, however (in fact, MPI needs this change -- see the next post in the openfabrics list thread above). I suggest that you post to ewg, indicating the change (-ENOSYS for unimplemented commands instead of -EINVAL) and see if anyone responds. If it is OK, then you should just do it. -Jack _______________________________________________ general mailing list general@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
