I dont see a problem.

For the sake of this argument, lets assume APM cant be done with iWARP.
How is an iWARP card different from an HCA on a fabric where
there's only a single path to a specific node then?

I dont have the IB spec in front of me now - is APM support optional
or required in IB?

I dont see how you can layer this on top without
support for reporting multiple paths, so it
will need to be addressed as part of this module.
