FWIW, we grabbed these and are running them on an AMD 2356 platform
box now (just a client). We had tried 1.6.5 + CentOS 5.1 + OFED 1.3
and the node was consistently crashing in the ko2iblnd module (no, I
don't have the stack trace). The RPMs seemed to just be the OFED
1.3.1 RPMS which were useful and installed fine on our 5.1 node but we
still had to build a lustre-patched kernel to match the modules and
then re-build lustre against the whole thing (OFED 1.3.1 + patched
kernel). Is that what you intended? I was hoping the kernel rpm
might be in there too. :)
So far it is working much better with the OFED 1.3.1 RPMs from Jeff.

For those who are asking, I was able to build OFED 1.3.1 against the
1.6.5 release (after some hacking of the process). Considering centos
5.2 (with OFED 1.3) isn't released yet, someone might find it useful.
Of course no warranties or guarantees :).

(Redhat 5.1, lustre 1.6.5, x86_64)
By the way, are lustre kernels tested for compatibility with the
latest OFED? This seemed to be more work than usual.
Thanks,
jeff
