ibacm: Required-Start on openibd
Hi,
The init script for ibacm adds a Required-Start on openibd, but rdma- core does not ship an openibd service. redhat/rdma.service and redhat/rdma.kernel-init seem to do the same job as openibd, but they are only used in rpm packages.
Can rdma-core ship a service that loads all the relevant kernel modules? Then ibacm can depend on that service. I am not sure if rdma.service is the best name for such an service.

Debian should use the RH for this scripts, I think.. Is there a problem with them?
Why does ibacm need to depend on rdma.service anyhow? Ideally we'd fix that..

Other than the fact that it doesn't make much sense without RDMA interfaces, it doesn't have to depend on the rdma.service. However, in the early days, that wasn't true, it had problems if it was started before all interfaces were up. Back in the day, I put that dependency in there to help alleviate that issue. I haven't tested it lately to see if it's gone or not, but one would hope so. However, at least in the systemd world, the rdma service is autostarted, so ibacm probably ought to be autostarted too, regardless of whether it depends on the rdma service or not.

systemd socket activation on its unix domain socket is the way to go, imho.
