My plan was to control which groups were created/joined when creating the userspace interface. I can still try to convert ipoib to use ib_multicast, but need to understand better how ipoib attaches/detaches from a multicast group. Does ipoib ever try to join the same group twice? I was just assuming that it didn't based on how it tracks the ipoib_mcast structures. - Sean _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
