No but the driver changes only make sense if rdma-core is updated with the required vmw_pvrdma patches. - Adit ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org https://lists.openfabrics.org/mailman/listinfo/ewg

[ewg] OFED 5.3 backporting status - 10-7-2019
Sorry, I didn't get agenda out for EWG meeting today so we didn't have a quorum on the con-call. Not much progress in the last two weeks so let's try and make progress for next EWG meeting in two weeks. Here is current status. o Mellanox - Vlad (mlx5 backports not ready) o Chelsio - Bharat (no update) o Cavium - Michal (cannot meet deadlines, disable qed, qede, and qedr drivers in OFED 5.3) o Broadcom - Devesh (no update) o VMware - Adit (patches targeted for kernel.org 5.5, requires rdma_core changes, could be problem for 5.3 timeline) o Huawei - Lijun Ou (still working on kernel-5.3 integration, see errors below) o Intel (i40iw) - Henry (5.3 support only, no backports) Build errors with kernel.org 5.3, latest daily drop: ERROR: "hnae3_unregister_client" [/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/compat-rdma-5.3/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns-roce-hw-v2.ko] undefined! ERROR: "hnae3_register_client" [/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/compat-rdma-5.3/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns-roce-hw-v2.ko] undefined! ERROR: "hns_dsaf_roce_reset" [/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/compat-rdma-5.3/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns-roce-hw-v1.ko] undefined! ERROR: "backport_rdma_dim" [/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/compat-rdma-5.3/drivers/infiniband/core/ib_core.ko] undefined! Vlad, can you look at this backport_rdma_dim?
