Hello,

I've recently setup an InfiniBand 40Gbit interconnect between two nodes to
run DRBD on top of some pretty fast storage.  I am able to get DRBD to work
over Ethernet and IPoIB, however, when I try to enable SDP for the lower
latency, lower overhead communication I'm getting connection errors:

block drbd0: conn( Unconnected -> WFConnection )
block drbd0: connect failed, err = -22
block drbd0: connect failed, err = -22
block drbd0: connect failed, err = -22

I have the MLNX_OFED installed on CentOS5.5 with SDP active:

# rpm -qa|grep sdp
libsdp-devel-1.1.100-0.1.g920ea31
sdpnetstat-1.60-0.2.g8844f04

libsdp-debuginfo-1.1.100-0.1.g920ea31

There is a significant (50-100%) increase in bandwidth and decrease in
latency using SDP instead of IPoIB, so even though IPoIB works I'd like to
use the SDP method.

Here's my node stanzas:

<snip>
  # 90-subnet = Ethernet, 20-subnet = InfiniBand
  on node01 {
    address 192.168.20.1:7778;
#    address sdp 192.168.20.1:7778;
#    address 192.168.90.1:7778;
  }
  on node02 {
    address 192.168.20.2:7778;
#    address sdp 192.168.20.2:7778;
#    address 192.168.90.2:7778;
  }
</snip>

If I uncomment on the SDP-based address, I get connection error -22 and
haven't been able to surmise what that means.  Any ideas?  Running the
lastest DRBD:

# rpm -qa|grep drbd
drbd83-8.3.8.1-1
kmod-drbd83-8.3.8.1-1

Any help would be appreciated,
-JR
