we've made some work on making the ISC-DHCP package work with IPoIB, basically
we took an old patch based on ver 3.0.2 of the package
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.openib/9191> and updated it
to the latest version. Attached is a tar file containing the
following:</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=460471713-24042006>1. </SPAN>The
dhcp-3.0.4b2 is the DHCP client/server program patched to support IP over IB
(IPoIB) protocol.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=460471713-24042006>2. </SPAN>The
dhcp-3.0.4b2.orig is the original version without IPoIB
support.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=460471713-24042006>3.
</SPAN>dhcp-3.0.4b2_ipoib.diff - is the patch file including differences between
the dhcp-3.0.4b2.orig and dhcp-3.0.4b2 versions.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><SPAN class=460471713-24042006><FONT face=Arial size=2>4.
dhcp-3.0.2_ipoib.diff - is the original Hal's patch.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2>The program <SPAN
class=460471713-24042006>was tested</SPAN> <SPAN
class=460471713-24042006>with</SPAN> linux kernel version 2.6.15 <SPAN
class=460471713-24042006>and most probably requires 2.6.14 or
later.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=460471713-24042006>During the port
of the patch we had to fix few minor conflicts. We also had to disable the LPF
support in order to be able to compile the new version. We sure have
to polish the patch more in order to have the LPF support back but I want to
understand if anyone is interested in that effort and if there are any
intentions to include DHCP support for IPoIB in the distros and/or the
next OFED version, more than that I would be happy to see Doug and Moiz more
involved in the OFED related discussions.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></P>
