Update: 

All critical bugs are fixed/tested with latest daily build: 
http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/ofed-4.8-2-daily/OFED-4.8-2-20180307-0728.tgz

Vlad, please promote this daily build to RC3.

It is my understanding that Michal will send you an update to release notes for 
Bug #2674, which closes this final bug before GA.

Thanks, 

Arlin

2018-03-07 Thread Vladimir Sokolovsky 

Michal,

I am not in favor of an automatic rebuilding of initrd as it can cause 
some customized configuration lose or other undesired results, like if 
one of the drivers has load issues it can cause system crash upon boot.


Of course, you are welcome to update the release notes.


PS: As you know, it will not help the one ignoring reading the release 
notes :)



Regards,

Vladimir

And for next versions, maybe it should be part of the build script ? with dracut -f 
--add-drivers  for every driver in compat-rdma?

22. Bug 2640 - openibd fail to start when system is coming up:

Hi Vlad and All,

During soft-forge testing of the package containing the fixes, we hit
a different issue which I believe could affect all vendors

The problem is when drivers are part of the initramfs/initrd of the distro as

they come inbox.

In our case qed/qede are inbox, but qedr is not. Meaning that qed/qede
are in initrd and loaded automatically with older version than the one

installed by OFED. Then when qedr is probed there is a mismatch, as the
OFED qedr version is newer and incompatible.

If the qedr was inbox as well, we probably wouldn't have even noticed that

OFED drivers aren't loaded.

(they will be loaded only after an rmmod of all qed drivers and
modprobe )

In our Out-of-box installation scripts, we update the initramfs with
the newly compiled drivers. I'd expect to see the same at the end of
an OFED build ( dracut -f / update initrd, mkinitrd etc... for example
)

We could just document this for the user to rebuild the ramfs after OFED

installation.

I'm not sure how this didn't come up until now, I've looked a bit on
our setups and noticed that a lot have omit-drivers in the lsinitrd or older

drivers that We're installed etc... this is easy to miss. In addition, the only
reason we did hit this is because the inbox / ofed drivers are mismatched...

Thanks,
Michal

Hello Michal,

Great progress, kudos to the team for a quick resolution. I concur,
let's test before we roll RC3.

Vlad, please pull these fixes into new daily build so Brendan can test.

Arlin



Hi Arlin,

We've been working with Brendan on this and were able to reproduce
on our setups fix, and test locally.
There are three commits (2 fix the issue and 1 fix was exposed that
our data collection had an issue)
2 out of the 3 fixes have already been upstream in official linux revisions.
one of the fixes can't go through next as is as the code varies quite a bit.

Brendan will only be able to fully verify the fix Monday / Tuesday.

The commits that need to be pulled are in my github:

https://github.com/mkalderon/ofed-compat-
rdma/commit/f20134d8f4736c6ce30975bb920cf64c2ec4248d

https://github.com/mkalderon/ofed-compat-
rdma/commit/4c5949ba5d075d814e30dc18bd4cdd71b45c972f

I would prefer Brendan gave this a test before rc-3. But I
understand we're on a tight timeframe.

Hi Arlin,

We've been working with Brendan on this and were able to reproduce on
our setups fix, and test locally.
There are three commits (2 fix the issue and 1 fix was exposed that our data
collection had an issue)
2 out of the 3 fixes have already been upstream in official linux revisions.
one of the fixes can't go through next as is as the code varies quite a bit.

Brendan will only be able to fully verify the fix Monday / Tuesday.

The commits that need to be pulled are in my github:

I would prefer Brendan gave this a test before rc-3. But I understand we're
on a tight timeframe.
