Lustre discuss - Jul 2008 - rpm kernel-devel package

On the download site, I am trying to figure out which rpm i need to  
download that would match the ''kernel-devel''  equivilent for
lustre.

I have a need to build the sun multipath driver against that kernel  
for our new MDS''s  machines, but it is not very obvious if I need:

  lustre-source-1.6.5.1-2.6.9_67.0.7.EL_lustre.1.6.5.1smp.x86_64.rpm

Or:

  kernel-lustre-source-2.6.9-67.0.7.EL_lustre.1.6.5.1.x86_64.rpm


Is there a reason why there is not just a normal:
kernel-lustre-smp-devel

Just like RedHat/SLES provides?
Thanks!

No.  This is the lustre source tree.

Yes, this is what you want.

Because we don''t use the RHEL kernel build process.  We have our own
kernel .spec.  That could change in the future though.  See bug 16312.
