[Pkg-ofed-devel] ofa-kernel build fails

[Nenad Kreculj]

Hi,

I'm trying to build sdp driver for debian.

My kernel is:
Linux debian 2.6.30-2-686-bigmem #1 SMP Sat Sep 26 02:30:18 UTC 2009 i686
GNU/Linux

I followed this link for instructions:
http://pkg-ofed.alioth.debian.org/howto/infiniband-howto-3.html

Since my kernel is 2.6.30, I used OFED 1.4:
ii  ofa-kernel-source                 1.4.2-2                  Source for
InfiniBand kernel drivers

"module-assistant prepare" followed by "module-assistant clean ofa-kernel"
works, but module-assistant build ofa-kernel fails (all patches were applied
without problems):

On the same system, IB with IPoIB works just fine (two machines connected
back-to-back, tested with netperf).

Any suggestion how to fix the problem is most welcomed, or other approaches
to building sdp driver.

Thanks,

Nenad
