Ok, but could we discuss first how will multithreading architecture be
implemented with libibnetdisc: goals (in particular is it support for
multithreaded apps or just multithreaded discovery function), interaction
with caller application, etc.?

One of the desired feature of this I could think would be to keep API
simple for single threaded stuff.
