Hello from Wales

Red Hat quoted just a simple ib_write_bw test as indicating the broken state of 
IB RDMA (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3568891):

    Run a RDMA write bandwidth test. ib_write_bw is provided by the package 
perftest.

    On target node run :
    # ib_write_bw

    On client side run :
    # ib_write_bw <target-IP>

    The test should fail.

Hope that helps
Ade

Dear all,

is there some kind of quick test to demonstrate the patch does have or does not 
cause a problem with RDMA? I have been asked to look into that but I don't 
really want to use a large cp2k calculation which, I believe, makes use of RDMA.

All the best from London
