I appreciate the updates. It looks like Vlad has already completed the
updates so we should be all set.

 

Thanks

 

Rupert

Yes, please send updated release notes to Rupert. Looks like RC3 on
Wednesday and GA in 2 weeks if all goes well. 

This gives everyone time to test RC3 and get release notes updated.

Did I miss anyone?
 
Minutes:
*   Opens
*  Broadcom is ready to add bnxt_re driver/library to OFED 4.8
*  Too late for 4.8. (bnxt_re is in rdma_core v14)
*  EWG will push to start on OFED 4.8-1 immediately after 4.8. 
*  linux-rdma list raised concerns about OFED and tech preview components 
*  The OFA board and XWG will discuss and advise
*  No one on call sees this as issue given the following:
*         tech preview is not included in OFED by default
*         tech preview documented in release notes
*         future plans for upstreaming 
*         OFED and upstream rdma_core in sync (no repeat of XRC)

*   OFED 4.8: 
*  http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/ofed-4.8/OFED-4.8-rc2.tgz
*
http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/release_notes/OFED_4.8-rc2_release_not
es
*  2622 fix:
http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/ofed-4.8-daily/OFED-4.8-20170505-0828.
tgz
*  Testing on RC2 looks good, no new critical bugs
*  Decision to roll RC3 for qib and i40iw fixes
 

*         Bug Report

*  2625 - rdma-core missing driver.h and headers under utils (Broadcom out
of tree, fixed in rdma_core v14)

*  2169 - IPoIB ib0 interface fails (FW issue, 12.18.2000) Add bug to
release notes.

*  2621 - Unable to compile Lustre on daily builds, RC2 fixed partly, still
fails

*  2622 - Can't modprobe ib_qib after OS reboot/openibd reboot RH 7.3 (Intel
to verify fix)

 
*   RC3 plan of record: 
*  Tatyana to send Vlad patches for i40we fixes by Friday, May 12th.
*  Will open new Bugzilla bug for tracking
*  Replace text in LICENSE file with new approved text from OFA board.
*  Vlad to build RC3 on Monday, May 15th
*  New target of May 29th for GA? (2 weeks to test and validate RC3)

 

Regards,

 

Arlin
