By the way, any ideas on how to make this step easier for users of the static library? > Michael> Roland, please let me know whether you plan to > Michael> apply this and the previous patch. > > I was waiting to see what changes you required to libmthca.

What am I missing? Does this work for you? Is mthca.a created? This does not seem to work for me - static library isnt created unless I remove the AC_DISABLE_STATIC. Put another way - whats the harm in always building the static version as well? Other libraries (e.g. libibverbs) build both static and shared versions by default. > I guess I will apply the patch to libibverbs to call openib_driver_init > if it's linked in directly. > > - R. > -- MST - Michael S.
