Hi Paul, you are not missing anything - lookback communication will work
in RDMAoE just as in IB.

Why do you say that Or?  
I'm a hardware guy so can't comment on what the s/w supports/prevents,
but I can see no reason why loopback wouldn't be supported.  In fact, if
I were guessing, I would guess that the spec currently under development
would support loopback.tt What am I missing?
