There is no "official" way. Either you can use the support already included in the kernel or use the latest and greatest (from the OpenIB svn tree). IPoIB is pretty stable. Some of the other ULPs are undergoing more change so that might influence your choice. In terms of building OpenIB modules, you will need to go into the kernel config, under device drivers, and configure the InfiniBand things you want for m (module). Mellanox HCA and IPoIB sound like they will be sufficient for what you are doing. -- Hal _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
