2 tristate "Software RDMA over Ethernet (RoCE) driver"
3 depends on INET && PCI && INFINIBAND
8 This driver implements the InfiniBand RDMA transport over
9 the Linux network stack. It enables a system with a
10 standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a RoCE
11 adapter or with another system running the RXE driver.
12 Documentation on InfiniBand and RoCE can be downloaded at
13 www.infinibandta.org and www.openfabrics.org. (See also
14 siw which is a similar software driver for iWARP.)
16 The driver is split into two layers, one interfaces with the
17 Linux RDMA stack and implements a kernel or user space
18 verbs API. The user space verbs API requires a support
19 library named librxe which is loaded by the generic user
20 space verbs API, libibverbs. The other layer interfaces
21 with the Linux network stack at layer 3.
