Hi Roland, This patch is kind of following the "occupy wall street" spirit, e.g let mlx4/IB consumers get the available EQs reserved/allocated for them by mlx4_core, which does so per port. Its basic for RSS later and also for optimizations in more ULPs down the road, will be happy to get any feedback if you have comments here. Also, another long pending patch is the one to allow for multiple IPoIB childs @ http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma&m=132630202116857&w=2 , which will be of use by the eIPoIB - the "Ethernet IPoIB" driver which was presented in the last OFA conference, the patch was initially posted back in November, so far no comment.
