[openfabrics-ewg] RDS

[Johann George]

Ranjit:

The latest version of RDS (SVN 7505) with the 2.6.16.18 kernel does compile.
I have finally been able to run netperf successfully using the PathScale
HCAs.  Congratulations!  However, when I run it using Mellanox HCAs, it
still fails.  Here is the command I run on the server:

    pcie-03> ./netserver -L 10.1.1.13 -r
    Starting netserver at port 12865
    Starting netserver at hostname 10.1.1.13 port 12865 and family 0

And on the client:

    pcie-02> ./netperf -H 10.1.1.13,4 -t UDP_STREAM -l 10 -r -- -L 10.1.1.12 -m 8192 -M 8192
    UDP UNIDIRECTIONAL SEND TEST from 10.1.1.12 () port 0 AF_INET_OFFLOAD to 10.1.1.13 () port 0 AF_INET_OFFLOAD
    send_udp_stream: sent 0, failed 2457

    131072           10.00           0              0.00

Both the machines are running SVN 7505 on the 2.6.16.18 kernel using the
x86_64 architecture.  IPoIB and other such things seem to work fine.  I have
CONFIG_INFINIBAND_RDS_DEBUG turned on.  On the console, I am seeing a
zillion

    rds_sendmsg: invalid socket control block

Any thoughts?
