I grepped for mellanox in the Linux kernel MAINTAINERS file and there are a lot of them but for mlx4 I see this person: MELLANOX ETHERNET DRIVER (mlx4_en) M: Tariq Toukan <[email protected]> W: http://www.mellanox.com F: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/en_* Most of the people on this list probably won't have mellanox driver experience and won't be able to help you much with offload issues. Of course, if mellanox would like to send me a couple of their adapters I'd be more than happy to install them and then I might be able to help. :) Best of luck! - Greg NOTICE Please consider the environment before printing this email.
