I previously sent an ABI-preserving version of this patch, but it was hated by Doug Ledford and (eventually) Jason Gunthorpe. After long discussion (see thread starting here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-rdma/msg15951.html), they decided that they wanted a clean break that forces both source code and ABI changes, which resulted in this patch. I personally don't care which way this goes; I just want the ability to have non-enum MTU values. -- Jeff Squyres [email protected] For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/ -- 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
