Vlad,
Please pull from:
git://git.openfabrics.org/~swise/ofed-1.4.git ofed_kernel
There are 20 commits that add the backports for cxgb3, one for each
kernerl. They also create new include files in kernel_addons/backports
to provide backports for net_namespace and a few other needed functions.
This results in removing 4 kernel_patches/backports/* files for the
core, iw_cxgb3, and rds modules. Namely these patches are no longer
needed and are removed:
cma_to_2_6_24.patch
addr_to_2_6_24.patch
iwch_cm_to_2_6_24.patch
rds_to_2_6_24.patch
New kernel_addon/backports/* changes:
- add net_namespace.h so modules that include it won't break
- add backport macro to remove the net namespace parameter from:
- ip_dev_find()
- route_ouput_flow() and route_output_key()
- dev_get_by_name()
- add is_vmalloc_addr() backport function
- add vlan_dev_info() backport function
I built these against a handful of the backport kernels. I didn't do
the cross platforms builds. So please lemme know if anything still
breaks in the cxgb3 code.
Thanks,
Steve.
