Hi,

RDMA support is available.
We will release an updated driver with RDMA and RoCE support (RDMA over Eth=
ernet) in 3 weeks (and commit it to upstream soon).
The inbox ipoib module is pretty old and has many issues. We will probably =
update it in the future.


Regards,

Oded Shanoon

Last time I tested FreeBSD 10.0, the basic IB stack was working well (Mella=
nox HCAs only), but IPOIB support was not usable. Hence, throughput was lim=
ited to well below the hardware transfer speed for NFS or any other TCP/IP =
based protocol.  Mellanox developers have been working on it, but I haven't=
 checked the status lately.  You might find something in recent FreeBSD ker=
nel commit logs.

Cheers,

     JB
