-SDP 
+Please refer to the TODO at:
 
-  - Cosmetic cleanup as needed.
-
-  - Reduce connection state machine complexity. Specifically there exists
-    redundant tracking of connection state which should be merged for
-    improved readability and maintainability.
-
-  - Add full connection cleanup once Connection Manager IDLE is in place.
-
-  - Reduce code bloat.
-
-  - Enable FMRs once mthca support is provided.
-
-  - Provide real support for SO_{RCV,SND}BUF
-    - internal posted buffers
-    - QP WQ size
-    - CQ size
-
-  - Create slow start algorithm for posted receive buffers to improve
-    memory consumption in large connection count applications, especially
-    for connections that are predominately sending data.
-
-  - sdp_link needs locking protection.
-
-  - sdp_link request cancellation support.
-
-  - SDP RDMA support for blocking socket operations.
-
-  - IPv6 addressing
-
-  - Alternate Path Migration (APM) support.
-
-  - Keepalive (zero byte RDMA write)
-
-  - Socket duplication (i.e. suspend)
-
-Possible Issues
-
-  - SDP address resolution requires looking at the IPoIB device's private
-    data structure inorder to determine interface's SGID, Port, and PKey.
-
-  - Memory locking for AIO requires a call to do_mlock() which is not a
-    kernel exported function, the method for calling the function is not
-    standard.
-
-Other
-
-  - Kernel level transparent socket switch for dynamic TCP/SDP selection.
-    (Possible SDP port mapper protocol from RDMAC)
-
-  - Extended Sockets API (ES-API). Initial Linux AIO based implemetation?
-
-  - New SOCK_DGRAM protocol?
-
-  - NFS over SDP.
-
-  - QP striping?
