infiniband devices when they are loaded.

KERNEL="umad*", NAME="infiniband/%k"
KERNEL="issm*", NAME="infiniband/%k"

Ok, added to default, will be in the next release.

But you might want to tell me what the default group and permissions are for these devices, otherwise, right now they get root:root 0660 assigned to them.
Comment 2 Tom Duffy 2005-02-09 08:57:05 UTC
root:root 0660 is fine for now until somebody comes up with some best practices for users/groups use of userland verbs.

Thanks
