This thread covers implementation of compression multiple MGIDs to one MLID.
The following groups of IP addresses will have same MLID (for all pkey):
1. FF12401bxxxx000000000000FFFFFFFF - All Nodes
2. FF12401bxxxx00000000000000000001 - All hosts
3. FF12401bffff0000000000000000004d - all Gateways
4. FF12401bxxxx00000000000000000002 - all routers
5. FF12601bxxxx000000000001ffxxxxxx - IPv6 SNM
I think we better avoid compressing the pkey as well. Think what happens
when a packet is sent to the all hosts and with your patch is routed to
N partitions each one having M hosts, (N-1) * M hosts will generate
invalid pkey trap! IB partitioning is a means to separate nodes, and
here you attempt to enforce a violation...
Or.
