[ofa-general] OFED 1.3 Beta release is available

[Tang, Changqing]

Here is an issue we have:

struct ibv_context {
        struct ibv_device      *device;
        struct ibv_context_ops  ops;
        int                     cmd_fd;
        int                     async_fd;
        int                     num_comp_vectors;
        pthread_mutex_t         mutex;
        void                   *abi_compat;
};

The binary is compiled with OFED 1.2 header files,  it tries to set async_fd to non-blocking, I get error:
Bad file descriptor.   If I compile the binary with OFED-1.3-beta header files (with XRC changes), it works fine.


Is this the expected behavior, or there will be a fix ?


Thanks.
--CQ Tang
