There are no current plans to do this.

Subject: [ofa-general] Feature request: ability to enable SDP system-wide

As known SDP (Sockets Direct Protocol) can be enabled in Linux
processes by setting the environment variable of LD_PRELOAD to
/usr/lib/libsdp.so before starting a process. This works fine, but
this approach cannot be applied to sockets created in kernel space.
E.g. the OCFS2 filesystem included in the Linux creates sockets from
within kernel space. Are there any plans to implement a facility like
the sdpadm command in Solaris which allows to enable SDP system-wide ?
