Hello Roger,

I'm just CC-ing this to openib-general for the community.

Thanks for giving us access. I have verified that the
`ibv_get_device_list' verb is indeed *missing* from the OpenIB install.
I'm afraid that given this Redhat rpm, it is difficult to get mvapich to
work (without patching it).

As Roland and others have indicated, perhaps the best way is for you to
upgrade to atleast the 1.0 branch. That should be the most stable OpenIB
release yet.

https://openib.org/svn/gen2/branches/1.0/src/userspace/

You should be able to keep the kernel stuff intact and just upgrade the
user level support (management, libibverbs, libmthca). You may skip
upgrading management, however it'll be best to upgrade it too, lest you
face any OpenSM issues.

Thanks,
Sayantan.


I now have the machines running RHEL4U3 + kernel.org 2.6.16.5 + the
Openib 1.0 userspace, given that the RPM spec files did work for the
openib tools that made things pretty simple, and have a resonable
set of rpms and tar files to execute the kernel+userspace update.

I have succeeded in getting OpenMPI to compile and execute HPL under
raw IB, and so far I am getting reasonable results and no corruption

Mvapich compiles but appears to not have made the mpirun version for
Infiniband, and yells about that when attempting to start HPL, I have
not yet looked at that in detail to see what the nature of the failure
is.
