The less host kernel / hardware / .. dependencies the better. I am wondering whether there can be a library doing everything in userspace, translating RDMA into e.g. socket messages (so maybe ultimately that's something like IP->rdma->IP.. just to cover the "rdma" procedures), then that'll work for CI reliably. Please also see my full list, though, especially entry 4). Thanks already for looking for solutions on the tests, but I don't want to waste your time then found that tests are not enough even if ready. I think we need people that understand these stuff well enough, have dedicated time and look after it.
