The NVMe fabrics stuff could probably make use of this. It's an in-kernel system to allow remote access to an NVMe device over RDMA. So they ought to be able to optimize their transfers by DMAing directly to the NVMe's CMB -- no userspace interface would be required but there would need some kernel infrastructure. Logan
