This would also be a good time to get NFSoRDMA ported to kDAPL as the
API is unlikely to change too much in the future.
I'm not as sure about the API. Is it necessary to abstract away
QPs, CQs, etc. from the user? (The answer may depend on the
intersection of the Infiniband and RNIC APIs.) Is it possible to
just extract out the kDAPL connection semantics and layer it
directly over verbs?
In addition to the streamlined connection management interface, kDAPL
also provides a unified event model. This is another feature that the
verbs do not provide.
Thus an app could talk directly to verbs and the kDAPL connection
manager, rather than verbs and the kernel CM and SA client modules.
