[ofa-general] Problem while running ib tests

Please use "-F" option while running the tests. It will ignore the "Conflicting CPU frequency" errors. You will still see these messages on your screen, but with "-F", you will also see the results.

Subject: [ofa-general] Problem while running ib tests

Hi,

I have two Dual port HCAa card.Which I have installed in
same PC.

I am using OpenSuse 10.3  and installed OFED 1.4.

If I try to run any IB bandwidth test or latency test it end us with warning
"Conflicting CPU frequency values detected: 2394.000000 != 1596.000000".

Is it an OFED related problem or Linux kernel problem.

HCA are connected back to back and output of ibstat is as given below.

Even ibibnetdiscover is detecting one hope.
So there is nothing wrong if I try to test 2 HCA connected back to back.

Please tell me what can be done for running ib tests.

Thanks,
