Hello Olaf,
I'm working on QoS management in OFED.
I noticed the following in the rds.h:
	/*
	 * XXX randomly chosen, but at least seems to be unused:
	 * #               18464-18768 Unassigned
	 * We should do better.  We want a reserved port to discourage unpriv'ed
	 * userspace from listening.
	 *
	 * port 18633 was the version that had ack frames on the wire.
	 */
	#define RDS_PORT        18634
I'm using this port number to recognize RDS
connection in QoS manager (OpenSM).
How 'solid' is this RDS_PORT definition?
Will it be standardized somehow?
Do you have some plans to change it?
Thanks
-- Yevgeny
