A structure representing the device in the kernel maintains a node_desc string. This gets updated when the file is written to. Whenever a MAD is receive, the HCA driver always gets a chance to examine and process the mad before it is handed up the stack. In this case, the driver sets the node_desc in the response mad based on the node_desc string stored with the struct ib_device. - Sean _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
