[lustre-discuss] ksym errors on kmod-lustre RPM after 2.10.4 build against MOFED 4.3

[Ms. Megan Larko]

Hi!

I concur with Gin Tan.

I built my successful Lustre-2.10.4 on an older linux-3.10.0-693.[ 2.2..x
or 17.1 ].
After booting into the 693 kernel, I then built MLNX_OFED_LINUX-4.3-1.0.1.0
via command:
"./mlnxofedinstall --skip-distro-check --add-kernel-support"

Then I start that version of mlnx (/etc/init.d/openibd start).

Then I build spl and zfs if the box is a Lustre server.
I go right to building Lustre if the goal is to install a client.

Lustre Client:
./configure --disable-server --disable-ldiskfs
--with-o2ib=/usr/src/ofa_kernel/default
--with-linux=/usr/src/kernels/3.10.0-693.17.1.el7.x86_64

Then the usual and customary "make" and "make rpms".
I do have a kmod-lustre-* rpm.   I have no symbol errors and my test bed of
Lustre-2.10.4 is behaving nicely.

I have found that order matters.  I seem to need to do the kernel first,
then Mellanox on that kernel and build the Lustre part on the kernel with
the new MLNX active.

Cheers,
megan
