[openib-general] Re: IBM utilizing and testing openIB release 1 RCx

Roland,

We really want a big sendq/recvq size in cluster nodes, much higher than 
256. Setting a big default QP sendq and recvq sizes would not be applied 
to any HCA driver. Each HCA has its own max QP queue size. Making these 
parameters tunable makes more sense.
 
In the meanwhile I am working on a patch to remove TX_RING in IPoIB and 
replace RX_RING with dynamic queue. TX_RING/RX_RING in IPoIB confuses 
users. These two parameters are not as same concept as Ethernet device 
here. It would take me quite a while to finish it (including patch 
validation, performance testing.)

Thanks
