Hi Greg - The irdma driver is the virtbus driver that would bind to the virtual devices created in this netdev driver. It is decoupled from this series as it was deemed in a prior discussion that irdma driver would go in a +1 cycle from net series to avoid conflicts. See discussion here -- https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/ The irdma driver is currently posted as an RFC series with its most recent submission here -- https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/[email protected]/ Shiraz
