[openib-general] [PATCH/RFC] libibverbs: Improve driver loading

[Krishna Kumar2]

Hi Roland/others,

Sorry to be a bit off-topic, but ...

Is this a good time to submit the Transport Neutral Verbs code ? Roland had
earlier suggested to do this after all major changes were finished and
before
libibverbs1.1 is released.

The way the code is designed is to have the existing ibv_*() routines which
are
exported, but these are changed to simply call similarly named rdmav_*()
routines
(also exported) which implement the original code. The intention is to
remove or
deprecate the use of ibv_*() routines by the next release (1.2?).

Thanks,

- KK
