Hi everyone, a few weeks passed since my last status update regarding rdma-core in Debian. We made good progress in getting it ready. Only three items are left: 1) I sent three patches for the ibacm and iwpmd service to the mailing list. They need to be reviewed and accepted: $ git log --oneline master..bdrung c3654500 ibacm: Add systemd service file 562d5a00 iwpmd: Support Debian/Ubuntu in sysvinit service 9744e8d2 ibacm: Fix service start_daemon call on Debian 2) Common infrastructure for auto loading rdma modules: See the "Add rdma service for kernel boot support" thread on this mailing list. Jason Gunthorpe made a very good proposal were I made some comments on it. 3) Get rid of openibd and rdma service dependencies: $ git grep openibd ibacm/CMakeLists.txt:set(rdmascript "openibd") srp_daemon/CMakeLists.txt:set(RDMA_SERVICE "openibd" CACHE STRING "init.d file service name to order srpd after") $ git grep rdma.service -- ibacm/ ibacm/ibacm.service.in:Requires=rdma.service ibacm/ibacm.service.in:After=rdma.service opensm.service openibd is not part of rdma-core and rdma.service will go away with the changes in point 2. I expect to see progress on these points in the coming days / next week. When all changes are in master, will we create a new release? Otherwise I will have to base my upload on v14 and cherry-pick all relevant changes. -- Benjamin Drung System Developer Debian & Ubuntu Developer ProfitBricks GmbH Greifswalder Str. 207 D - 10405 Berlin Email: benjamin.drung@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web: https://www.profitbricks.com Sitz der Gesellschaft: Berlin.
