[Users] ibacm?

[Michael Di Domenico]

it looks like i found the culprit

when running ibacm out of the box on rhel 7.4 the ibacm.log shows

acm_if_iter_sys: ioctl ifconf error -1

if i change the line

s = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);

to

s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);

as Hal suggested and start the ibacm daemon i acm correctly bind to be
ipoib addresses and interfaces.  my initial report of this change not
being effective was a miss communication in that i though it related
to the client and not the service process

i can then run

ib_acme -f i -s 172.22.64.96 -d 172.22.64.96 -S 172.22.64.96 -v V

and get back valid data

ib_acme -d <hostname> still doesn't work, but that might be internal
we don't currently have reverse/forward entries for our ipoib
interfaces, i'm still looking into it
