[openfabrics-ewg] rc3 installation issues.

[Aviram Gutman]

Woody,


The whole issue is to have as many people as possible participating in the effort. We are running almost all the stack and I thought that if you already running Intel MPI on gen2 it should be not a big effort to run it on  OFED.

Intel MPI needs a stable uDAPL and supporting usermode verbs/uCMA and such.
If you have that, then Intel MPI should work. If you want to get a copy of Intel MPI
to use in your testing of OFED, I can put you in contact with our Intel MPI lead and he can
provide you with the code and a license.

Please work with Vlad to make sure you have what you need in rc4.

Not yet. Last I heard, there was no uDAPL in OFED that is neeed by Intel MPI. Maybe RC4.

Woody,
 
Are you testing Intel MPI on top of OFED?

The latest patches I have is for SVN 6509 on the trunk. 
https://openib.org/svn/gen2/branches/backport-to-2.6.9/
infiniband-backport-svn6509-to-2.6.9-34.EL-kernel-fixups-00.diff
infiniband-backport-svn6509-to-2.6.9-34.EL-kernel-fixups-01.diff
infiniband-backport-svn6509-to-2.6.9-openib-drivers-02.diff
infiniband-backport-svn6509-to-2.6.9-openib-fixups-03.diff

I don't split the patches by component, but rather have one to strip out the old IB
code in RedHat EL4.0, one to apply needed kernel changes to the RedHat kernel,
one for the openib drivers, and one for openib fixups that are needed.

We plan to do a backport of uCMA for RC4.

Can you point me to your backport of uCMA for 2.6.9-34EL

 

Thanks,

Tziporet

Note that there are two uDAPL providers for OpenIB. One uses standard sockets for connections (socket CM)

and the other uses CMA. I would suggest that you should include the socket CM uDAPL provider even

if you do not have a backport for uCMA.

BTW. - My backport patches contain backport for uCMA for 2.6.9-34-EL if you need an example.
