Hi, Roland! The more I think about your proposal, the more it makes sense to me. One comment:

Interesting. The current CM in linux is global, but it seems there's no problem at least for the simple case with one IP per port. Generally, cant we solve it by filtering? Get the remote IP address from CM private data, and find through which gateway it's accessed? Note that clients like NFS/RDMA seem to want to re-resolve the IP by ARP anyway, for verification purposes. -- MST _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
