Hey Sean,
Can you peruse:
http://bugs.openfabrics.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2230
The changes I added to rping to fix problems I was seeing when running rping over the upstream iw_cxgb3 have been
included in OFED-1.5.3. That change, however breaks rping over iw_cxgb3 in 1.5.3. It causes a hang at the end of the
rping run. The problem is not with rping, but with the down-level iw_cxgb3 code. The upstream change to fix iw_cxgb3,
however, isn't trivial and it bumps the cxgb3 uverbs ABI. That's why I didn't pull it into 1.5.3. I'm hesitant to pull
in the iw_cxgb3 (and required libcxgb3-1.3.0) since we're at RC4 and going to try and GA next week.
I'm wondering if pulling the rping changes for ofed-1.5.3 would be ok? I guess to do this you would have to push a
1-off librdmacm without those changes? Or maybe back up what is in OFED-1.5.3 to the previous release without this
rping change?
Thoughts?
Sorry about this regression.
Steve.
