-Re-open address file every time addresses are assigned
+Delay opening address file until assigning addresses
-If ib_acm is configured to update its address configuration
-file in response to dynamic changes, we want to update it
-every time new addresses are assigned. Open the address
-file immediately before reading it. This will be needed to
-handle dynamic changes.
+In order to handle ports that are down, we need to add
+new endpoints only when they are brought online or assigned
+new partitions (pkeys). This is easier to handle if we
+delay the opening of the address configuration file until
+immediately using it to assign addresses. It also makes it
+possible for future patches to adjust assigned addresses dynamically.
