The currently supported distributions and associated Linux kernel versions for 
InfiniPath and OpenFabrics are listed in 

. The kernels are the ones that 

shipped with the distributions.

Keep the following in mind when setting up the environment:

„

The kernel-devel (for Red Hat and Red Hat-derived kernels) RPM or 
kernel-source (for SLES) RPM for your distribution/kernel must be 

installed.

„

The runtime and build environments must be the same. Compatibility 
between executables built on different Linux distributions cannot be 
guaranteed.

„

Install sysfsutils for your distribution before installing the OpenFabrics 

RPMs, as there are dependencies. Check your distribution’s documentation 
for information about sysfsutils. This package is called udev on 

SLES 10.
