Oh no!!
First of all I don't know of any kDAPL implementation for any OS that
is still being developed. Everyone completely gave up on kDAPL a long
time ago.
And if all you care about is being able to work on top of IB and
iWARP, then libibverbs + librdmacm works perfectly fine without having
to add another layer and all the complexity of DAPL.
And librdmacm integrates with the routing subsystem allowing the RDMA CM
to choose the correct rdma device. DAPL forces you to open each device
and "hope" your remote destination is reachable...
