ball<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I look at the OFED sources only on
occassions. Recently I downloaded the OFED-1.1.tgz from the openfabrics
website. Basically I only wanted to look at some sources in this tar ball (and
not build). After I uncompressed and expanded this tar ball I found another
tar ball openib-1.1.tgz underneath the SOURCES/ directory. I expanded this tar
ball to look at the source files. I then started to look at the sources and
this was at odds to what I expected.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif
size=2>I learnt that I had to run the openib-1.1/configure script to update
the sources with all the patches. I believe this is counter-intuitive. My
understanding is that one needs to run the configure script to generate the
Makefiles and set the appropriate environment in order to build. The
openib-1.1.tgz should have had all the patches applied and there should
be no need to run configure to look at the updated sources.</FONT>
