I'm not sure exactly what you are asking here.  We do what I would
imagine is a typical one to many UD multicast.  We code directly to
libibvers and librdmacm, and everything is sent IBoE.

The hosts are in a spine/leaf configuration and all traffic is sent
over vlans.  My understanding is that the multicast IBoE traffic is
simply sent as broadcast and that the adapters do the necessary
filtering.

Really from my point of view OFED already does what we want, but I
would really like to see this supported upstream.

Thanks,
Shawn
