Description of problem: hwloc 1.4 is now available upstream. What are the plans to update hwloc in RHEL6? I maintain hwloc package for Fedora and I can can make new package "hwloc14" available for EPEL6 if there are no plans to update hwloc in RHEL6. Thanks Jirka
I can request an update for 6.4 and see if it gets approved. I won't know for a few months though. Cheers, Don
Hi Don, it sounds like a good plan. Please let us know the status once 6.4 is finalized. Thanks Jirka
I will update this bz when I get new info. Cheers, Don
I have updated to v1.5 and will push that out to 6.4 barring any unforseen issues. Cheers, Don

hwloc 1.5.1 was released on October 17th: I am curious if we want to package that instead or stick with 1.5? http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/hwloc-announce/2012/10/0045.php The Hardware Locality (hwloc) team is pleased to announce the release of v1.5.1: http://www.open-mpi.org/projects/hwloc/ v1.5.1 is a bug fix release which addresses all known bugs in the v1.5 serie. * Fix block OS device detection on Linux kernel 3.3 and later. Thanks to Guy Streeter for reporting the problem and testing the fix. * Fix the cpuid code in the x86 backend (for FreeBSD). Thanks to Sebastian Kuzminsky for reporting problems and testing patches. * Fix 64bit detection on FreeBSD. * Fix some corner cases in the management of the thissystem flag with respect to topology flags and environment variables. * Fix some corner cases in command-line parsing checks in hwloc-distrib and hwloc-distances. * Make sure we do not miss some block OS devices on old Linux kernels when a single PCI device has multiple IDE hosts/devices behind it. * Do not disable I/O devices or instruction caches in hwloc-assembler output. -- Brice
Hi, I definitely agree that it makes sense to go for 1.5.1 I have updated master branch of hwloc for Fedora in case that anybody would like to test 1.5.1. My local tests all went through. Jirka
Automated and manual testing succeeded Verified.
