Also, personally, I felt that the 1-2 slides you delivered on Sonoma where way below what would let one understand in what features exactly the HW supports, and I don't want to be referred to under-NDA docs, lets just have you provide a clear description regarding large-send and checksum offloading. Same for the HW interrupt mitigation, can be nice if you explain the problem, the solution and spare few words how does this goes with NAPI. One more thing is the LRO staff - its a pure SW optimization, if you think this should be in the ipoib code, some justification materials can be helpful. Yes, I will try to do a better job this time :) Lets do it more concrete: please comment if you will be presenting the actual SW design and more important, how much time you think you need, 20m is way below anything that allows for questions and some discussion - will 45m be enough? Will you referring the last patch set posted by Eli - (it has some pending comments that were not addressed) or Eli is going to post new version before the conference?

I haven't yet prepared the presentation. I am willing to cover whatever you think is important. Indeed 20m allotted time is too short. So, I should either adjust myself to this short time-slot or ask for more. Given that the other sessions are also 20m, I was thinking to have a short talk (with less of contents). If you feel that people can benefit from longer presentation, I will be happy to get more time for it. 40-45m will be great. -Dror ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg

Sean - SA-caching - 45m I think 30 minutes for this should be sufficient. - Sean ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg

1) the long time and endless threads related to the SA caching thing need to be there. Sean - I saw that you prepare a session, correct? will you presenting few possible designs? I was asked to prepare a session and will mention some of the general scalability issues that we've seen with Intel MPI. 3) QoS - Sean, Dror, generally speaking, what where you thinking to discuss? We plan on discussing what was added to the stack and opensm. Keep in mind that both of these are only 20 minutes. - Sean ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg

Sean, As you might saw over the thread OpenFabrics Developer's Summit: tentative agenda I am working to get the Linux IB issues what ever time we need to discuss them. You can assume at least 45 minutes (and if needed more) to the SA caching so you can go much further then the problem description eg to sketch few possible designs / implementations. This is a two years old open issue which need to be solved. Similarily for QoS, I'd go further to discuss open issues if there are such that you are aware to. Who's going to present the opensm changes - you or Dror? Or. ___ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg
