It sounds like a good idea to me. Personally, I don't see any reason to install bits
of lustre client software on my lnet routers when they only need the lnet piece of the
software. (Just so long as it doesn't complicate the lustre build process and make it
harder.)

I suspect that LWG is too small a list to ask such questions.
I've added hpdd-discuss and lustre-devel to the CC list.
I'm not against it in principle, but I have no idea how much work this will be to
implement.
Cheers, Andreas

What does the community think about splitting the LNET build out of Lustre as a separate
set of (source and binary) RPMs?
This would make it easier/faster to build, install, and upgrade Lustre in existing
installations without changing things we don't need to. It would also make it easier
to re-use LNET in other projects, and make it easier for unusual users to maintain a
customized LNET.
I have no idea how this might affect landing in mainstream kernel.
Thoughts / opinions?
