[ewg] Re: ofed-1.4.1 rc5 and sles10sp2

[Steve Wise]

I see the same behavior with RC5 on RH5.2/i386.

I did some reverting, and it appears this commit is the culprit:

------------------
commit 9e1a4dd600347472829859849168fd3a6f7c597c
Author: Jeff Becker <Jeffrey.C.Becker at nasa.gov>
Date:   Sun May 10 20:21:12 2009 -0700

    NFSRDMA: remove dependence of backport ib_core on nfs: fixes Bug 1596
    Signed-off-by: Jeff Becker <Jeffrey.C.Becker at nasa.gov>
--------------------


So if I take the ofed-1.4 top-of-tree and revert 
9e1a4dd600347472829859849168fd3a6f7c597c, things work.

Jeff, did you test this commit?  Can you confirm you see this behavior too?


Steve.
