I understand that officially ROCE will be supported in Windows OFED 3.0.  But there is a mail thread in ofw on Dec 27 "Allow basic functionality of RoCE to work", it seems to indicate that there is a OFED build/driver that supports ROCE on Windows.I am wondering if I can get this build/driver and try Windows ROCE.- SC
Hi,
  Although preliminary support is in the winOFED SVN tree, I do not ‘believe’ there are enough bits present above the raw mlx4 driver to enable testing from user-mode.
Tzachi can provide the full answer.

Subject: [ofw] ROCE support in Windows OFED 2.3  Is there a way to test ROCE on Windows? I am using Connect-2 EN cards in Windows Server 2008 R2 system with OFED 2.3 installed. I have tested these adapters in Linux and I can run the ROCE perf
tests. Going through the mailing lists, it seems that there are driver sources out there available that provide the ROCE support in these adapters on Windows. Can somebody send me the drivers required to test ROCE on Windows?
Any help will be really appreciated.
- SC  OFED for Windows (winOFED 3.0 ) will support ROCE in the Q3’11 timeframe.winOFED 2.3 does not support ROCE.  Stan.
