Just few quick comments on the change-log: the SM doesn't control/manage MGIDs, its the application (ipoib in this case), so I assume you are referring to MLIDs. I believe that the Linux IB stack doesn't support send-only groups ala the IB spec, so you're talking on "stale groups" which are practically send-only, I would add that to the change log Or. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
