Dear Leon,
with all due respect, but if you don't want to be part of the solution,
then please at least stop being part of the problem!
I (and highly likely many other admins out there who don't follow this
list) am in full support of Haim's request for sorted output.
Not everything can/will be pinned down in a manpage, but if you insist
then sure someone can submit a amendment to the ibstat documentation
which demands alphanumeric sorting for the NICs/ports.
Best,
Jens

Hi all,
When running "ibstat" or "ibstat -l", the output of CA device list
is displayed in an unsorted order.
Before pull request #561, ibstat displayed the CA device list sorted in
alphabetical order.
The problem is that users expect to have the output sorted in alphabetical
order and now they get it not as expected (in an unsorted order).
Do we have anything written in official man pages about this expectation?
I don't think so, there is nothing "to fix".
Thanks

Ok, but for many years people got used to getting sorted output in
alphabetical order and now they don't get it.
Like for many other things, those people will adapt.
Thanks
