Hi Sean,
A couple of minor questions about this patch:
1. In ib_mad.h:
/**
+ * ib_mad_snoop_handler - Callback handler for snooping sent MADs.
+ * @mad_agent: MAD agent that snooped the MAD.
+ * @send_wr: Work request information on the sent MAD.
+ * @mad_send_wc: Work completion information on the sent MAD. Valid
+ * only for snooping that occurs on a send completion.
+ *
+ * Clients snooping MADs should not modify data referenced by the @send_wr
+ * or @mad_send_wc.
+ */
I presume snoop clients should also not free the MAD either. If so, should that comment
also be added ?
2. Should MAD snooping be exposed to user space too ?
Thanks.
- Hal
