Hi Roland,
 
In order to support High-Availability in OFED 1.1, we need more
functionality to the srp daemon.
Based on your code I implemented a new srp daemon (I listed its new
features below) . 
I put the code in
https://openib.org/svn/trunk/contrib/mellanox/gen2/src/userspace/srptool
s/srp_daemon
and I'm in an initial testing stage (there are some known bugs).
Since I think that people may still want to use your original ibsrpdm, I
think we should keep your version and start a new tool from my code.
What do you think?
 
Ishai
 
========
The new tool main features:
 
    1) Register to Traps 64 and 144.
    2) Can ask ib_srp to connect to the targets it finds.
    3) Can check if the target is already connected by ib_srp from the
same port.
    4) Can perform rescan of the fabric every X seconds.
    5) Identify SA changes and other events and act accordingly.
    6) Can get an hca name and a port number as input (not only a umad
device).
    7) Uses the umad package.
