Make sense to me, but if we are saying the redhat scripts only work
with a certain newish kernel then it would be great to also purge all
that crufty compat stuff (mttrs, pci tuning, etc) so we can better
understand what is still actually needed..
Other stuff doesn't crash our verification runs of upstream rdma-core
vs. upstream kernel :)
In our previous discussions, we agreed to have master branch to be in
sync with Linus's tree and proposed to distributions to manage special
(backported) branches for specific releases.
And I agree with you and would like to see compat stuff removed.
Doug, Jarod
What do you think? Can you do it?
I think this should be fine, I don't think rdma-core is going to make
it's way (at least not directly) back to distros with sufficiently old
enough rdma kernel stacks that this would cause any issues.
