Hi, guys!
Since several people asked about this, the minimal SDP version that I'm
developing is being hosted here

https://openib.org/svn/trunk/contrib/mellanox/sdp

Warning: I'm really using this repository for active development so this might
not even compile at any given moment.  What this mostly is intended to show is
how compact a bcopy only sdp really can be: below 2000 loc at the moment, and
almost all code I plan for first release is already there. The reason of course
is that I'm using the standard kernel structures such as skbuffs, as well as
the elegant cma interface.

what works well: connection setup/teardown with cma, module and socket ref
counting.
what doesn't: actually passing data :)
missing things: port assignment - this will be fixed in CMA;
graceful close; out of band data.

I hope to be finishing off the data transfer issues in the next
several of days, and start looking at close/oob features after that.
