Hi Folks,
I am merging ofed very soon. Here is the diff between the ofed base and
head branches, which includes all of the diffs to vendor files and FreeBSD
files:
http://people.freebsd.org/~jeff/ofed.diff
If you want to ignore the ofed parts just skip sys/ofed and contrib/ofed
and you will be left with the changes to the base system required to
support ofed. This includes things such as:
1) new config(8) options
2) Makefile glue
3) type change in sysctls for arg2.
4) IFT_INFINIBAND and related stack changes.
5) More generic vlan support
6) VM_WIRE_WRITE
7) endian changes
The diffs are actually quite small when you eliminate ofed diffs. I don't
know why I have so many merge properties but I'll just apply this diff to
current, build & test before committing rather than have svn do it.
Unless someone tells me otherwise.
Before I commit I'm going to switch the default to not build ofed and the
related kernel modules. I may add some more comments in various pieces as
well.
This is a last call for review. I had already sent out the individual
pieces to interested parties.
Thanks,
Jeff
