[openib-general] suggestions for features

[Sean Hefty]

While working on the CM, I came up with the following list of features 
that could be useful.  I don't have time currently to implement any of 
these properly, but they're probably worth discussing.

* It would be nice to be able to take a received MAD and turn it around 
as a send.

* When reporting ib_device's (after the user calls ib_register_client), 
receiving the device attributes would be nice.

* Having a way to access cached attributes directly from the ib_device 
structure would be nice for that matter.  Specifically, the CM needs 
access to the CA GUID and cached GIDs.

* An address handle cache would also be useful.
