[PATCH 00/16] ehca: IBM eHCA InfiniBand Device Driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

many thanks for your comments. They are very helpful for us. All
17 patches have to be applied, otherwise the driver won't compile.

We added an initial version to support large pages. At the moment
we verified it only for 4K pages, because we're struggling to get
a Linux kernel with 64K pages running properly on our system.

We would appreciate for any comments and feedbacks.
