The real problem is that there are not sufficient kernel interfaces to support the rdma cm pre-2008. Prasanna was suggesting to establish the connection from userspace, where there is support, but do everything else in the kernel. (If I finally understood it correctly.) Maybe ipoib can provide the necessary kernel interfaces for rdma-cm support? - Sean _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
