Yes. Getting the SMC RFC accepted by the IETF has been a challenge since it
mucks with the tcp layer in ways that make people nervous.
And in order to implement SMC you need to change the common code, not just
the s390x tree.

Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] Is SMC-D supported by z/VM and Linux?
I was hoping to use it between zLinux NFS server and z/OS NFS
Client... and also ftp between the two....but it sounds like I'm out of
luck...no support for zLinux.
So my choices are:
1. Hipersocket
2. Shared OSA
Correct ?

Subject: Is SMC-D supported by z/VM and Linux?
I opened a ticket with IBM asking about documentation to configure SMC-D
on z/VM and Linux...and they came back with "there is no doc".
They pointed me to PTF VM65716, but that only refers to SMC RoCE...
Now I'm wondering if SMC-D is supported?
If so I want to set it up on my z13s and zVM 6.4
Anyone know the answer?
Thanks,
Dave
