Hi, I'm new to this list.
Are there any plans to support Infiniband in OpenvSwitch?
As I understand IPoIB does not work (I've tried!) with any bridging or VLANs to VMs. Hosts can use IB no problem, but not VMs. The problem is apparently the hardware addresses that's much longer than Ethernet MAC addresses and you need EoIB to achieve this. (I cannot add an IB NIC to any bridge) To get EoIB (Ethernet over infiniband) working, you need Mellanox BridgeX hardware and software.

It would be great if OpenvSwitch could support bridging Infiniband with Ethernet...
