[ofw] FYI - WinOF RC4 build status - waiting on patch review&commit.

[Slava Strebkov]

Hi,
1. Our IB switch is heavily loaded when a lot of nodes are started up.
	This patch eliminates at least one query to SM, so it helps to
switch to handle SM queries.

2. This is a current problem, so it may be placed into trunk.

3. Our QA testing shows improvement in solving IB_TIMEOUT issue.

Slava

Since this patch is changing a very sensitive area in IPOIB there are
three things that I would like to ask:

1) Taking into consideration that even without this patch there is a
cluster with 2000 nodes, how important is this patch?

2) Will it be possibale to check this in only to the trunk and not to
the branch?

3) How much testing did Voltaire did with this patch. 

Thanks
Tzachi
