There is no such code there. OB1 knows nothing about LIDs. It does RR
over all available interconnects. It can do RR between ethernet, IB
and Myrinet for instance. BTL presents each LID as different virtual HCA
to OB1 and it does round-robin between them without event knowing this
is the same port of the same HCA.

Can you explain what are you trying to achieve?
