Hi all. Just wanted to update NFSRDMA status. I have tested and
confirmed that it works on SLES 11 SP1 and kernel.org 2.6.30-32. I'm
currently tracking down a bug in RHEL 6.1 but I anticipate this should
be solved soon. When that is done, I will work on the remaining targeted
kernel.org kernel ports. Thanks.
