Hello,

The default config files related defines come from 
management/opensm/include/config.h, which is generated by autoconf.
In actual fact, it's easy to see which files are being used using strace 
as follows:

[user at host] git > strace -e trace=open opensm -f - 2>&1 | grep opensm.conf
open("/home_nfs/vficet/work/infiniband/etc/opensm/opensm.conf", 
O_RDONLY) = 3
 Reading Cached Option File: 
/home_nfs/vficet/work/infiniband/etc/opensm/opensm.conf
