Subject: Re: [ofa-general] [PATCH 7/7] IB/ehca: Prevent overwriting QP init attributes given by caller

I don't understand this patch.  <rdma/ib_verbs.h> says this about
ib_create_qp():

 * @qp_init_attr: A list of initial attributes required to create the
 *   QP.  If QP creation succeeds, then the attributes are updated to
 *   the actual capabilities of the created QP.

So it seems the current code is actually correct and your patch breaks
it??
