[ofa-general] Re: [PATCH 3/3 v4] ib/ipoib: blocking multicast loopback ipoib packets

[Ron Livne]

Thank you,
I'll be sure to fill both your requests for my next patches.

We would like to start working on user space verbs for blocking
multicast packets as was discussed in a previous thread.
I would like to implement it simply by adding a new verb (kind of
extended create_qp).
I think this implementation will have similar characteristics with the XRC.

Do you have any suggestions or preferences?

Ron
