| |
Here's a patch that will remove a few lines of code from the IB core, and let it work properly with userspace programs that are only watching the netlink socket for events, instead of mucking around in sysfs (like the latest versions of udev do.)
I've only compile tested it as I have no IB hardware here.
If you want, I can forward this on to Linus in my driver tree, or you can send it yourselves.
thanks,
greg k-h

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Subject: IB: fix up major/minor sysfs interface for IB core
Current IB code doesn't work with userspace programs that listen only to the kernel event netlink socket as it is trying to create its own dev interface. This small patch fixes this problem, and removes some unneeded code as the driver core handles this logic for you automatically.
