Hi Dave Miller/Roland, With respect to above dependencies we did some experiments and found following things 1. We can apply three cxgb4 patches, 01 02 and 03, on net-next tree successfully and build it. 2. Out of 7 RDMA/cxgb4 patches only 04, 08 and 10 can be applied trivially and driver can be built successfully. If we try to apply remaining patches, 05 06 07 and 09, either they will fail to apply or give build failure. Moreover patches 05, 06, 07 and 09 can be applied on top of 04, 08 and 10 cleanly. Based on above results we would like to propose following two things. 1. We would like to recommend that all the patches get included in Roland's infiniband tree since it has build dependencies. 2. Alternatively, - Patches 01, 02 and 03 can be included in net-next tree. - Patches 04, 08 and 10 can be included in Roland's infiniband tree at present. - Patches 05, 06, 07 and 09 have to wait till the net-next hits the 3.2-rc1. Please let us know if you have any other suggestions.
