From 8523c0480979080e8088e40f25459e5b2d19f621 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Hefty Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2010 16:41:15 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/cm: Revert association of an RDMA device when binding to loopback Revert the following change from commit 6f8372b6 ("RDMA/cm: fix loopback address support") The defined behavior of rdma_bind_addr is to associate an RDMA device with an rdma_cm_id, as long as the user specified a non- zero address. (ie they weren't just trying to reserve a port) Currently, if the loopback address is passed to rdma_bind_addr, no device is associated with the rdma_cm_id. Fix this. It turns out that important apps such as Open MPI depend on rdma_bind_addr() NOT associating any RDMA device when binding to a loopback address. Open MPI is being updated to deal with this, but at least until a new Open MPI release is available, maintain the previous behavior: allow rdma_bind_addr() to succeed, but do not bind to a device.
