Hi,
We (Mellanox) already did that in FreeBSD-10.0.
You can go to sys/modules and compile + kldload the following modules (in t=
hat specific order): mlx4, ibcore, mlx4ib, ipoib.
We are planning on refining it and break ib_core into smaller modules (ib_s=
a, ib_mad...) on our next commit.
Regards,

Subject: Kernel module?
Does anyone know if are any plans for converting the IB stack to a loadable=
kernel module? At present, freebsd-update will remove IB support if it up=
dates the kernel, making it necessary to do another buildkernel following t=
he updates.
Certain other updates might necessitate a buildworld as well, which would a=
lso be nice to eliminate.
Thanks,
Jason
