I'm currently working on moving the rdma_cm code that's in svn forward to what's upstream. (I was just typing a message on this...) My plan is to ask Roland to host one, maybe two, branches in the infiniband.git tree. Here are the main pieces missing from the kernel: 1. We need to add rdma_establish() and expose the rdma_conn_param values as part of the connection event. I'm working on a patch for the latter. 2. We need a ucma branch. To merge upstream, it makes sense to include item 1 first, but this leads to a conflict with the OFED releases. OFED ABI version 1 includes RC QP support, but without item 1 changes, and SVN ABI version 2 includes multicast support. 3. There's been requests for an rdma_cm branch that includes UD QP / multicast. The cleanest solution from an ABI perspective is to merge multicast support before the ucma; however, I'm not sure that makes the most sense for merging upstream.
