Although CMA is layered on top of CM and some other Linux modules, I too think it appears core in nature although perhaps optionally loaded. Also, in terms of the current implementation, the headers (ib_cma.h and ib_addr.h) are under include/rdma which is core, right ? -- Hal _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
