old. I generally build from git for my Ubuntu machines. I've attached
a script that does the job, quick and easy:
$ apt-get install gcc flex bison automake libtool autoconf
$ mkdir /opt/ofa
$ cd /opt/ofa
$ ofabuild clone
$ ofabuild build -V ofa-1.5.1 -p /opt/ofa-1.5.1
But the install goes into /opt, not /usr/lib so you have to use
something like
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ofa-1.5.1/lib/
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/ofa-1.5.1/include LDFLAGS="-L/opt/ofa-1.5.1/lib/
-Wl,-rpath=/opt/ofa-1.5.1/lib/"
PATH=$PATH:/opt/ofa-1.5.1/bin:/opt/ofa-1.5.1/sbin
How wonderful!!
I would never have hoped in such a reply, you even gave me the scripts
to compile OFED under Ubuntu automatically!!
THANKS A LOT !!!
Only one more question: did I understand correctly that you suggest me
to use the in-kernel modules on Ubuntu or vanilla kernels, even if I
compiled OFED for userspace?
Otherwise, how should load those from OFED? I think modprobe does not
find them unless they are in /lib/modules/mykernel, and your script does
not put them there, it seems to me.
Thanks again!
