[ofa-general] [ANNOUNCE] libmthca 1.0.5 released

[Roland Dreier]

libmthca is a userspace driver for Mellanox InfiniBand HCAs.  It is a
plug-in module for libibverbs that allows programs to use Mellanox
hardware directly from userspace.

A new stable release, libmthca 1.0.5, is available from

    http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/mlx4/libmthca-1.0.5.tar.gz

with sha1sum

    a68b1de47d320546c7bcc92bfa9c482f7d74fac1  /data/home/roland/libmthca-1.0.5.tar.gz

I also tagged the 1.0.5 release of libmthca and pushed it out to my
git tree on kernel.org:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/infiniband/libmthca.git

(the name of the tag is libmthca-1.0.5).

Builds for the Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 releases will be available by
adding the lines (replacing hardy by gutsy if needed)

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland-digitalvampire/ubuntu hardy main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland-digitalvampire/ubuntu hardy main

to your /etc/sources.list file, and updated Debian and Fedora packages
will work their way into the main archives.

This release fixes several bugs and adds support for the new kernel
interface for mr attrs (which will be shipped in 2.6.26).
