I learned I have to re-base it to comply with rdma-core. @Shiraz One can test the current code by cloning from https://github.com/zrlio/softiwarp as stated above. check out the 'dev-siw.mem_ext' branch to make and run on 4.13. That version expects RDMA support, installed for your preferred distro (librdmacm and libibverbs installed, etc.). But let's not further discuss running siw off-tree here; the github page has a contact pointer if you want to give it a try and run into issues with it. > >> >> Shiraz >> -- >> 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 > [attachment "signature.asc" removed by Bernard Metzler/Zurich/IBM] -- 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
