[ewg] Fwd: [mvapich-discuss] Installation of OFED-1.5.3-rc4 on kernel 2.6.36-UL4-x86_64

Hello, I'm forwarding this message to the ofed ewg list in hope that
someone can help you there.  I see that you already posted to the
linux-rdma list so I won't copy this there.

It looks like the kernel rpm isn't building with your version of gcc.
Looking at the logs it shows that the -c is followed by -o and gcc
doesn't like this.

Subject: [mvapich-discuss] Installation of OFED-1.5.3-rc4 on kernel
2.6.36-UL4-x86_64
To: mvapich-discuss at cse.ohio-state.edu


Dear all,

    I try to install OFED stacks on the host. Since my kernel version
is 2.6.36-UL4-x86_64, which is not supported by OFED-1.5.2. So, I
tried OFED-1.5.3-rc4. In the process of installation I got the error
message of

Build ofa_kernel RPM

--define 'configure_options   --with-core-mod --with-user_mad-mod

Failed to build ofa_kernel RPM
See /tmp/OFED.21798.logs/ofa_kernel.rpmbuild.log

Then, I checked the log file and search for the error info. These are
the info at the end:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.36-UL4-x86_64'
make: *** [kernel] Error 2

Finally, I tried to git download all the source code and make install
all the packages. But after install, everything also didn't work.

Failed to get IB devices list: Function not implemented

I guess there is some configuration that I haven't done after make
install all the package. Following are the packs I have installed:

[litan at tera04 userspace]$ ls
dapl  ipoibtools  libamso  libibcm  libibverbs  libmthca  librdmacm  management
ps. : My RNIC is NetEffect NE020 10Gb Accelerated Ethernet Adapter (iWARP RNIC).


Any information is really appreciated.
