In all fairness, the kernel portion of all of this, and the process of getting things into Linus' kernel, has *always* been a case of staging things in Roland's tree and then merging upstream. So, at least for the kernel, that's mostly true as OFED is pretty close to Roland's tree generally

Conversely, there are some vendors who will *not* support OFED from a distro, but only a version they supply and control. The customers I work with are more sensitive to performance, as well as quick turnaround for bug fixes, so having the latest releases, and being able to update them

It's currently in, although that isn't written in stone either. Individual changes to existing components, like xrc, can slip past me easier than whole unsubmitted subsystems like RDS. I think for RedHat it would end up being in the kernel, but Roland's userspace library doesn't support it, so it
