I've just committed skeleton versions of userspace/libibverbs and
userspace/libmthca. This is mostly to get early feedback on the
structure of the code, etc. -- what's there doesn't do much that's
useful. libibverbs is the device-independent part of userspace verbs,
and is what applications actually link to. libmthca is
device-dependent support for the same set of Mellanox HCAs as mthca
support in the kernel.
Right now, about all you can do is build the libraries, set
OPENIB_DRIVER_PATH to a path where mthca.so can be found, and run
ib_devices to get a list of devices and node GUIDs.
All comments and suggestions welcome as usual.
Thanks,
Roland
