I am reviving http://www.openib.org/bugzilla this morning, as part of
getting ready for 1.0rc1.
If you're unfamiliar with Bugzilla, its view of the world has two parts:
products and components. A product can have multiple components.
Right now, there's only one product defined in OpenIB's Bugzilla,
"OpenIB". It has a few components defined, such as SDP, mthca driver
support, and so on.
A parenthetical note:
It might make more logical sense to get rid of the OpenIB
product and move the current components up to product status.
This would let us have a Mellanox product that had driver and
userspace components, for example.
However, I'm not sure this is worth the effort, so I propose to
just leave the layout as it is for now, and we can reorganise
the bug database if it ends up getting heavy use.
Now back to our regular scheduled discussion: I need to create new
components, and give them sensible default owners.
The current components are:
Access Layer InfiniBand Access Layer
DAPL Direct Access Programming Library
IPoIB IP over InfiniBand
OpenSM Subnet Manager
SDP Sockets Direct Protocol
SRP SCSI Remote Protocol
ipath driver PathScale InfiniPath driver
mthca driver Mellanox HCA driver
I have no idea what "InfiniBand Access Layer" is supposed to be -
perhaps verbs? This needs a more meaningful name.
Most of the components above have a default owner of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which is a bit confusing (where does that mail go?
I don't know). I'd prefer to have humans be the default owners.
To that end, I've set up Hal as the OpenSM owner, and myself as the
ipath owner. If you think you should logically own a component, please
let me know. Just create a Bugzilla account for yourself and tell me
what email address you're using.
Other components that I can think of that need adding:
ehca driver IBM HCA driver
iSER iSCSI Extensions for RDMA
librdmacm RDMA connection management library
Verbs Use this name instead of "Access Layer"?
I don't know if MVAPICH really belongs in OpenIB Bugzilla. Opinions?
