[openib-general] curious warning message (gen1, ibgd, possibly ot)

[Peter Kjellström]

Hello folks,

I'm sorry if this is kind of off-topic for this list but I suspect that there 
are quite a few people on this list that can answer my rather simple 
question.

Every time the tavor-driver loads I see these (kinda scary) warnings:

THH kernel module initialized successfully VAPI(2): thhul_qpm.c[2140]: 
***WARNING***: AVs for special QPs should use HOST memory; the provided PD 
has its AVs in DDR memory.
(repeated four times)

Does anybody know what this means (it's not exactly english to me ;). Can it 
be safely ignored? (the systems seems to humm along nicely..)

I'm running IBGD-1.6.1 from mellanox on my Xeon Nocona cluster (pci-express). 
My HCAs are of the so called "lion cub" type and the os is centos-3.4 
(rhel3u4). Firmware is afaict 4.5.3 (fw_ver=0x400050003 as reported by 
vstat).

tia,
 Peter
