Re: [ewg] Agenda for the OFED meeting today (May 5)
Hi Tziporet, RDS fixes for RDMA API - done As an update, I just sent Vlad a bugfix for a RDMA related crash in RDS. It would be cool if that could be included in 1.3.1. I am also currently testing three more bugfix patches; two of them related to dma_sync related issues, and one patch to reduce the latency of RDS RDMA notifications (a process expects a notification from the kernel that tells it when it's okay to release the RDMA buffer - the current code tries to give a reliable status at the expense of one round-trip; this turns out to be too slow for some purposes). It is not yet clear however which (if any) of these three pending patches will make OFED 1.3.1.

Re: [ewg] Agenda for the OFED meeting today
Hey Tziporet, I cannot attend today's call. For the chelsio drivers, there will be a series of patches to be pulled into ofed-1.3 for the chelsio cxgb3 driver. They have been submitted upstream and ACKed by Garzik but he hasn't applied all of them yet. Once they are in his upstream branch, I'll pull them in for ofed-1.3 and ask Vlad (or you/michael in his absence) to pull these in. In addition, I want to pull these same patches into ofed-1.2.5 so that tree has the latest chelsio fixes as well. For the chelsio rdma driver iw_cxgb3, there will be a big patch to fix our port space issue. It is still under development and review, however. Steve.
