Conceptually, perhaps, but someone has to figure out how to split out the necessary cmake bits into something reusable, it is no longer entirely trivial :) Also don't forget that the internal API inside the header files changes, a provider that has been modified for rdma core 15 will not compile on rdma core 13, just like the kernel.. I just wonder if it is worth the all the proposed work, I expect out of tree providers to be very rare and temporary things. > If this is done upstream once and for all, and not by every > out-of-tree provider, it is not fragile anymore. Someone would also have to contribute some kind of test infrastructure to keep it working for upstream.. If it doesn't run in cbuild I don't test it :P Jason -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
