[openib-general] [RFC] userspace IB SA support

[Tang, Changqing]

Where do you put these new user functions ? Do you create a new library
? I hope not to create a new library, we already have so many libraries
now, it is hard to manage
For users using dlopen().

Also when is it available ?

Thanks.
