[Bug 659258] Re: Infiniband/RDMA rules absent

The idea from udev upstream is that if device files are supposed to be,
say, in /dev/infiniband then the kernel should know that instead of the
udev rules.  I merged the required kernel changes into kernel 3.0.0-rc1,
so Oneiric should be better.

Title:
  Infiniband/RDMA rules absent

Status in udev - /dev/ management daemon:
  New
Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udev

  Ubuntu release: 10.10, amd64
  udev version: 162-2

  After upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 the udev rules for Infiniband /
  RDMA device nodes have vanished, rendering all applications that rely
  on their presence (in short: the infiniband / RDMA stack)
  dysfunctional.

  Manually adding the 40-infiniband.rules file from 10.04 works around
  the issue.
