This exaclty the same as for iWARP: IPoIB checks the node transport, and if it is != IB, it exists. For RDMAoE, we do the same check but at the port level.

This is another reason why NOT to try to add IBxOE under the IB transport, but rather add it as it's own transport type. We should not need to hack all the InfiniBand ULPs to now have to know the difference between real IB and IBxOE._______________________________________________ general mailing list general@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general _______________________________________________ general mailing list general@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
