Hi Zhou,

In theory it supports RDMA but AFAIK nobody has done end to end testing 
of RDMA, unless that pre-dates my time with this project.  Is it 
officially supported or at least intended to be?  Somebody from the 
architecture team would have to answer that.  Also, what is your 
intention in terms of use, iWARP or RoCE/IBoE?  Mellanox hardware? 
There are a bunch of config files in the rdma-core package but they 
could need tailoring, I don't know without diving in.  Steve, do you 
have anything to add?
