[LU-1108] 'configure' incorrectly set HAVE_RDMA_CREATE_ID_4ARG to 1

• Type: Bug
• Resolution: Duplicate
• Priority: Minor
• Affects Version/s: Lustre 2.1.0
• Environment: rhel 6.2 kernel; ofed kernel 1.5.4.1; wc-release b2_1
• Severity: 3

Description

Building of lustre-2.1.1 rc2 failed in configuration stage with errors:

configure:9856: result: no
configure:9863: error: can't compile with OpenIB gen2 headers under /usr/src/ofa_kernel-lustre211

The configuration log 'config.log' is attached. The configure command as shown in log is:
$ ./configure --enable-ext4 --disable-liblustre --with-o2ib=/usr/src/ofa_kernel-lustre211 --with-linux=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-220.4.1.el6.20120130.x86_64.lustre211 --with-downstream-release=0.2nasS_ofed154

The <rdma/rdma_cm.h> from rhel6.2 contains rdma_create_id prototype with 4 arguments, but the rdma_cm.h from ofed 1.5.4.1 contains rdma_create_id prototype with 3 arguments. I believe the headers from ofed should take precedence over the one from kernel. "Configure" failed in my case because it was incorrectly determined to set HAVE_RDMA_CREATE_ID_4ARG to 1.
