Jeff/Roland/all,
What is the preferred submission driver model for an iWARP-capable
Ethernet NIC - two separate drivers (Ethernet and OpenFabrics) that
interact with each other, or a single driver that supports both
OpenFabrics and Ethernet interfaces?

For our hardware we can go either way, although in case of separate
drivers the interface between the two would get somewhat artificial...
	 
	Thanks, Leonid
