This is a package that provides python support for userspace MAD
access. To install system wide, do
# python setup.py install
or privately:
$ python setup.py install --home=<prefix>
$ export PYTHONPATH=<prefix>/lib/python # (or lib64/ on some systems)
$ export PATH=$PATH:<prefix>/bin
Currently, the only use of this package is the 'dmcli' device
management client, which can be used to discover SRP targets as follows:
# dmcli -t /sys/class/infiniband/mthca1/ports/1 -d /dev/infiniband/umad1 2

This shows a query being sent to LID 2 using the device
/dev/infiniband/umad1. Since this target is a Topspin SRP gateway,
one has to do a SET of ClassPortInfo before querying, so the -t flag
is used to set the path to get the information to put in ClassPortInfo.
The query discovers one IO Unit, with one controller. The controller
offers 11 SRP services.
The LID of the target is required before calling dmcli.
This will all be cleaned up in the future.
