Instructions are on the wiki in case you weren't aware: https://wiki.freebsd.org/InfiniBand You still have to do a buildworld to update your userland tools, though. I've made the argument that the userland tools could and should be built with IB support now. It adds a trivial number of files and only modifies a few binaries. This would allow someone to get IB support running in minutes instead of hours, and would prevent freebsd-update from replacing ib-enabled files with generic ones.
