As far as I know, the FreeBSD kernel has no support for userspace access to InfiniBand/RDMA hardware (although I know very little about FreeBSD and so I may be wrong). In which case adding the linux __uXX types just to get things to build will not produce a package that has a chance of doing anything useful. Does FreeBSD even have /sys/class/infiniband exported by the kernel? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
