It was brought up in few occasions that the ipath driver can be changed such that it becomes a software IBoE driver (e.g use packet socket with the IBoE ether type for the IB L2 emulation). If it doesn't have to serve for the qlogic HCA anymore, this transformation might be even eaiser. I wonder if its better to remove it now and maybe return it later with the new facelift or leave it till the change is done.
