Based on a quick look at the user mode verbs and CM the porting effort from IB Gen1 should be relatively straight forward. Missing is user mode SA support (with RMPP) for ATS and Path Record queries. Not sure what has been discussed so far on this thread but we also need some discussion regarding name services and the possibility of a kernel agent to support ATS registration and deregistration during IPoIB configuring (events), IP to PathRecord resolution (IPoIB arp services), and support for shared memory. SDP and other ULP's could certainly make make use of this agent to resolve IP to GID mappings. -arlin > > I would think that initially, the first changes are to develop a > provider that calls > the new gen2 verbs APIs rather than the gen1 APIs.
