I checked it and saw that the patch is applied, but since in the patch
Sean put the cm_issue_drep as a static, thus nm does not show it.
from the patch: +static int cm_issue_drep(struct cm_port *port,
....
Once I removed the static I get:
nm ib_cm.ko | grep issue
00001fca T cm_issue_drep
00001605 t cm_issue_rej
Still its not exported since there is no call for EXPORT_SYMBOL.
Do you really need the symbol to be exported out of the ib_cm module, or
is it enough this way.
Please reply ASAP since we want to close the release code today.
