Yep, very good idea...

Yes, I've been trying to find time to make a patch which adds rdma-ndd into the rdma-core.  I absolutely agree it should be part of rdma-core as it is much better than the 1 time shot of the start up scripts.

What I have been worried about is conflicts between infiniband-diags and the new rdma-core.  RH made a separate package out of rdma-ndd so that would be easy but I don't think other distros have.

So how do you obsolete "part" of a package?
