[openib-general] modules compilation status for OFED 1.2

[Ramachandra Kuchimanchi]

Tziporet,
 
We investigated supporting the VNIC driver on SLES 9 SP3 and it looks like the
backport patch for this may not be completed by the Jan 31st code freeze.
Thus for now, VNIC driver will not be supported on SLES 9 SP3.
 
Regards,
Ram

Subject: modules compilation status for OFED 1.2


Hi All,
We are approaching code freeze and I want to make sure that all kernel modules indeed will compile on the supported OSes of OFED 1.2:


*	Redhat EL4 up5 (currently tested on up4)
	
*	Redhat EL5 - if will be available 
*	SLES9 SP3 
*	SLES10 SP1 
*	kernel.org: 2.6.19.x and 2.6.20.x 

The status is that all modules (except ehca) pass compilation on kernel 2.6.19.

The following modules have issues with support for some distros:


*	vnic (Ram) - SLES9 
*	ipath driver (Bryan) : SLES9, Redhat EL4 up4, SLES10 SP1 
*	ehca driver (Nam) - SLES9, Redhat EL4 up4, SLES10 SP1, 2.6.19 

Owners of these modules: Please take an action to fix as soon as possible or reply if you don't want your module to be supported on some of the distros

Thanks,
Tziporet
