They should work, that's what they do internally.

Michael,
        Thanks. I will try this if the build scripts from the OFED tarball dont work. (I was unaware that such a thing existed.)

Thanks.

    >      I just started working with openIB in the past week. I am having an issue getting the kernel modules to compile with the stock rhel4 u3 kernel. I have applied the patches found at https://openib.org/svn/gen2/branches/backport/2.6.9_U3/ and followed the instructions from https://openib.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Installation+Cheat+Sheet
   
    Note these instructions are for 2.6.16

    After you apply
    linux_idr_6554_to_2_6_13.patch
   
    a file ./include/linux/idr.h will be created for you.
   
    You should build with directory ./include/linux first on include list
    for this to take effect.
   
    something like
   
    make -C $(KSRC) SUBDIRS="$(CWD)/$(SRC)linux-kernel/infiniband" \
                    LINUXINCLUDE='-I$(CWD)/include \
                    -I$(CWD)/$(SRC)linux-kernel/infiniband/include \
                    -Iinclude \
                    $$(if $$(KBUILD_SRC),-Iinclude2 -I$$(srctree)/include)' \
