It is, which is why we encourage people to use the I/B stack provided by RedHat, already built into their kernel and the corresponding user-space packages. It seems that a lot of people (think they) need to install the Mellanox I/B stack instead. Perhaps this is true for your (and everyone else's) case, or perhaps not. I can't really tell, and am not really involved closely enough in I/B to know. But ultimately, I wonder why, given all of the apparent need for whatever Mellanox does differently than the upstream OFED and/or RH I/B stacks are doing, that these needs for the Mellanox stack are not being pushed back into either OFED or the upstream kernel I/B stack. Life really would be so much easier for so many people if it were. Maybe if Mellanox hears from enough of their customers about the pain it is to use their hardware they might try to get their stuff upstream. b. _______________________________________________ HPDD-discuss mailing list HPDD-discuss(a)lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/hpdd-discuss
