Dear list,
I am trying to get Xen working over infiniband connectivity, and this
mailing list seems to me to be the best place to post my question. I
will greatly appreciate your help and advise.

I was able to get up Dom0 to work with infiniband, but not DomU.
I am using Xen 3.0.2 with vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen and initrd-2.6.16-xen.img
for DomU kernel and ram image respectively.

I am getting the error of  "Unknown symbol in module" when i am trying
to insert infiniband modules ib_mthca.ko and ib_umad.ko to domU kernel.
I made sure that the kernel was configured with infiniband support.
However, the dmesg output does not show that domU recognized infiniband
hardware at bootup.

Should I be specifying anything about infiniband in domain config file?
Any help very much appreciated,
Thank you,
Lamia Youseff
