[ewg] non SRQ patch for OFED 1.3

2008-01-24 Thread Pradeep Satyanarayana
Some HCAs like ehca do not natively support srq. This patch would enable IPoIB CM for such HCAs. This patch has been accepted into Roland's for-2.6.25 git tree for about 3 months now. Please consider including this patch into OFED 1.3. Signed-off-by: Pradeep Satyanarayana [EMAIL PROTECTED]
