I'm suggesting to introduce the following two functions and modify the IWARP providers to use them. int iw_cm_register_device(struct ib_device *ibdev, char *ifname, const struct iw_cm_ops *ops) { ibdev->iw_cm_dev = kzalloc(sizeof(*ibdev->iw_cm_dev), GFP_KERNEL); if (!ibdev->iw_cm_dev) return -ENOMEM; ibdev->iw_cm_dev->ops = ops; memcpy(ibdev->iw_cm_dev->ifname, ifname, sizeof(ibdev->iw_cm_dev->ifname)); return 0; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(iw_cm_register_device); void iw_cm_unregister_device(struct ib_device *ibdev) { kfree(ibdev->iw_cm_dev); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(iw_cm_unregister_device); Thanks, Kamal > Jason >
