> Past history is irrelevant. I think backwards compatibility and simplicity count for something. The only point about libibverbs is that the group rdma permissions are already applied to /dev/infiniband/uverbsX, and the class of users/applications that use those nodes are the same as the ones that would use /dev/infiniband/rdma_cm. So given that any systems where libibverbs is in use have already configured the rdma group, it seems we should at least consider whether we want to break that setup and/or introduce a different mechanism to do the same thing.

It's very frustrating to get replies to all my comments except for when I ask what you want me to do. -- Ubuntu is missing /dev/infiniband/rdma_cm group ownership udev rule https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/256216 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
