Main Changes from OFED-1.5

Added RDMAoE support.

See attached readme file for usage information.
===
  OFED-1.5 with RDMAoE Support 
   README for OFED-RDMAOE-1.5
   
January 2010
===

Contents:
=
1. Overview
2. Software Dependencies
3. User Guidelines
4. Ported Applications
5. Firmware Requirements
6. Known Issues


1. Overview
===

RDMAoE allows InfiniBand (IB) transport over Ethernet networks. It encapsulates
IB transport and GRH headers in Ethernet packets bearing a dedicated ether type.
While the use of GRH is optional within IB subnets, it is mandatory when using
RDMAoE. Verbs applications written over IB verbs should work seamlessly, but
they require provisioning of GRH information when creating address vectors. The
library and driver are modified to provide for mapping from GID to MAC
addresses required by the hardware.

2. Software Dependencies

In order to use RDMAoE over Mellanox ConnectX(R) hardware, the mlx4_en driver
must be loaded. Please refer to MLNX_EN_README.txt for further details.


3. User Guidelines
==
Since RDMAoE encapsulates InfiniBand traffic in Ethernet frames, the
corresponding net device must be up and running. In case of Mellanox
hardware, mlx4_en must be loaded and the corresponding interface configured.
- Make sure mlx4_en.ko is loaded
- Make sure an IP address has been configured to this interface
- Run "ibv_devinfo". There is a new field named "link_layer" which can be
  either "Ethernet" or "IB". If the value is IB, then you need to use
  connectx_port_config to change the ConnectX ports designation to eth (see
  mlx4_release_notes.txt for details)
- Configure the IP address of the interface so that the link will become
  active
- All IB verbs applications which run over IB verbs should work on RDMAoE
  links as long as they use GRH headers (that is, as long as they specify use
  of GRH in their address vector)


4. Ported Applications
==

- ibv_*_pingpong examples have been ported too. The user must specify the GID
  of the remote peer using the new '-g' option. The GID has the same format as
  that in /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0/ports/1/gids/0

- Note: Care should be taken when using ibv_ud_pingpong. The default message
  size is 2K, which is likely to exceed the MTU of the RDMAoE link. Use 
  ibv_devinfo to inspect the link MTU and specify an appropriate message size

- All rdma_cm applications should work seamlessly without any change

- libsdp works without any change

- Performance tests have been ported


5. Firmware Requirements


RDMAoE requires ConnectX firmware version 2.7.000 or newer. Some features
require newer, not yet released firmware versions. For example, loopback
support is available in firmware versions 2.7.624 and later.


6. Known Issues
===

- PowerPC and ia64 architectures are not supported. x32 architectures were
  not tested.

- SRP is not supported.

Superb, that worked fine.  Many thanks everyone, time to go play with

Assuming that you are with Ubuntu-9.10:

  sudo sh -c "echo /usr/local/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf"

No need to recompile, just run it.

Sorry, I'm very much a linux newbie.  Could you explain what I need to
do to add that to ld.so.conf.  It has just one line at the moment, do
I just need to add another that says "include /usr/local/lib"?

And then do I just run ldconfig?  Will I need to recompile the
programs, or should opensm just run then?

By default the libraries are installed in /usr/local/lib. Assuming so
you likely need to add this to your ld.so.conf paths and rerun ldconfig.

Re: [ewg] Is this the right place for questions on OFED?

2010-01-12 Thread Ross Smith
Hi Tziporet,

Yes, I'd tried with --without-depcheck option but to no avail.

However, it looks like I don't need OFED, and I've today found the
opensm packages on the openfabrics.org website, and have downloaded:
libibumad-1.3.4.tar.gz
libibmad-1.3.4.tar.gz
opensm-3.3.5.tar.gz
infiniband-diags-1.5.5.tar.gz

I followed the instructions in the README file to install them in
order.  However while everything has compiled, and appears to be
installed ok, I still cannot run opensm:

# opensm
opensm: error while loading shared libraries: libosmvendor.so.3:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Does anybody have any ideas as to what I might have done wrong?

thanks,

Ross

[ewg] EWG/OFED meeting minutes for Jan 11, 2010

2010-01-12 Thread Tziporet Koren
EWG/OFED the meeting minutes for Dec 23, 2009

Meeting summary:

1. Started to work on OFED 1.5.1.
2. OFED 1.5.1 GA is expected on March 3, 2010 (RC1 on Feb 2)
3. OFED 1.6 features - will be closed at Sonoma
4. Sonoma workshop - everyone with an idea for a session or feedback on
the suggested agenda is welcome to approach Bill Boas


Meeting details:

1. OFED 1.5.1 status:
These are the changes that were done to the source since OFED 1.5
release:
Kernel :
- rdma/cm: Fixup IPv6 support and IPv4 routing corner cases for RDMA CM
- RDS/TCP: Wait to wake thread when write space available
- RDS: use IB_CQ_VECTOR_LEAST_ATTACHED for cq's
- RDS: update copy_to_user state in tcp transport
- sdp: use IB_CQ_VECTOR_LEAST_ATTACHED for cq's
- sdp: make statistics per cpu and added statistics instead of prints
- Add support for RoCEE - as submitted to the kernel last week.

Userspace: 
- libmlx4, libibverbs - Add RoCEE support

Other changes that should be done:
- Open MPI update to rev. 1.4.1
- MVAPICH release update to 1.2
- Fix NFS-RDMA bugs and bring it to GA
- Bug fixes
- More OSes support - be prepared for RHEL 5.5 with back-ports - Ask
Doug Ledford if kernel is stable enough to start.
- Updated uDAPL package
- Support SDP on PPC64
- iSER support for distro

Still open:
- uMMU notifier kernel module - If it will be added to OFED then Open
MPI can add the code to support it. Need to check resources.
- SW implementation of RoCEE - need to check with SFW


2. OFED 1.5.1 Schedule:
I assume only 3 RCs:
- RC1 - Feb 2, 2010
- RC2 - Feb 16, 2010
- RC3 - Feb 24, 2010
- GA  - Mar 3, 2010

Reasonable, maybe RHEL 5.5 kernel will take more work. 

3. Update on OFED-RDMAoE branch:
The code is aligned with OFED 1.5 and the GA is expected tomorrow

4. OFED 1.6:
Open discussion on features, base kernel, main features, ...
Suggestion from Bill:
- First datacenter focused release - Woody suggested to get a
written list and have a session in Sonoma on this.
- Resolve Scalability issues
Other features (from SC09 OFA BOF):
- SRIOV
- Mellanox vnic
- uMMU module (or any other kernel implementation)
- Virtualization

5. Sonoma schedule:
Everybody should send input and session suggestions for Sonoma to Bill
Boas.

We'll probably release a backport for RHEL5.4 and SLES11 in OFED-1.5.1
If RHEL5.5 is out by than, it will be probably supported.

I'll send patches soon
