Description:
In the output from ndb_config --xml --configinfo, the transporter sections 'TCP', 'TCP DEFAULT', 'SCI', 'SCI DEFAULT', 'SHM', and 'SHM DEFAULT' are listed.
The non-TCP sections are only for internal use, and could be deleted from the output from ndb_config. Alternatively, if they are still listed in the output, they should be marked with an attribute in the element tag, e.g. supported="false", internal="true", or something similar.
As an example: <section name="SHM default" comment="shared memory options for ndb data nodes" supported="false">
This applies to sections 'SCI', 'SCI DEFAULT', 'SHM', and 'SHM DEFAULT'.
How to repeat:
Current output from ndb_config does not distinguish between the sections.

At http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/mysql-cluster-interconnects.html SCI and SHM
connections listed as supported.
[17 Sep 8:18] Sveta Smirnova
Thank you for the report.
Verified SHM part as it is experimental and SCI is supported.

IRC log:
[10:11] <sveta> hartmut: bug #47365 is not a bug, correct?
[10:14] <hartmut> sveta: SCI is supported for sure, although we only have very very few
users of that
[10:14] <hartmut> sveta: SHM i've never seen in action and i'm pretty sure it was declared
as "not supported anymore" at some point ...

[10:15] <hartmut> SHM functionality is considered experimental only. It is not officially
supported in any current MySQL Cluster release, ..."
[10:16] <sveta> hartmut: ah-ha, thank you! So partially verified feature request

Following up on the previous IRC discussion i'd like to suggest a general optional
supported=yes|no|experimental|deprecated
attribute for all configinfo tags which would default to "yes" ...

The deprectade configuration options are not printed out. And I think "experimental" is just a nice word for "no", will use experimental.
