Subject: [PATCH] docs: infiniband: correct name of option to enable the ib_uverbs module
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 17:20:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616002027.67925-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com> (raw)
The Infiniband documentation states that CONFIG_INFINIBAND_USER_VERBS
should be used to enable the ib_uverbs module. However, this option was
renamed to CONFIG_INFINIBAND_USER_ACCESS in commit 17781cd6186c
("[PATCH] IB: clean up user access config options"). Update the
documentation to reflect this.
