[rds-devel] Has anyone tried running RDS over 10GE / IWARP NICs ?

Possibly the problem is in the bind() code. When you bind
to an address, you also bind to a transport at the same time.
The RDS/IB code checks for dev->type == ARPHRD_INFINIBAND
and I guess that's simply not true for iWARP NICs.

What's the proper procedure to identify those?

Also, we attach some RDS specific data to each IB interface we find
(via ib_client add/remove). Do these callbacks get invoked for iWARP
NICs, too?
