Are you sure?  Because I see at least a bunch of changes to SDP in the
git history, and SDP isn't upstream at all.

I am using the OFED tree directly :-)

That was frankly because we were in a rush to get something useful into
the OFED tree; it's certainly not how we'd like to proceed.  I have two
big stacks of  broken-out patches that I'm shaking out the last
remaining problems in right now, and which will be much easier to
maintain, going forwards.
