hi,

I'm deploying a new cluster with infiniband and I would like to use
NFS-RDMA over IB. I'm asking about it here because it is hardly
possible to find up to date info about NFS-RDMA. Page
http://nfs-rdma.sourceforge.net/Documents/README points to Tom
Tucker's linux kernel git tree but provided git link is dead.

My hardware will be Mellanox HBAa and Flextronics switch. I already
know that NFS-RDMA client is in official kernel. What about server?
Should I use OFED 1.2 or try 1.3? Should I use infiniband drivers from
kernel or OFED?

I'm ready for a big challenge and lots of testing. This would result
in feedback to OFED/NFS-RDMA development.

thanks in advance, Pawel
