Hi, Following EWG weekly meeting, I'd like to open a discussion regarding the necessity of maintaining a stable rdma-core branch similar to the linux kernel stable branches. I understood there were some offline discussions on the topic and would like to raise it on the list and try to push forward. We found a critical qedr bug during OFA debug event testing. We provided a patch which was applied (e768239 libqedr: fix inline data copy). However, we remain with rdma-core-15 broken for qedr. We feel for this case, and perhaps other similar issues in the future, it will be useful and critical for distros, OFED, and independent package-installation to have a stable release for each rdma-core release. I'd like to here if anyone has any objects / concerns on the matter in general, and if there is a consensus about the need and whether this is something the rdma-core maintainers would be willing to provide. Thanks, Michal -- 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
