The Mellanox Gateways (4036E, 6036G and Skyway) are only for IP
traffic and do not support ROCE or Native IB across the bridge. The newest
version of it "Skyways" does not even support Multicast.

And these are appliance so they cannot be modified. If Mellanox would
commit to do this then great but I guess that would need to be some high
level decision and if a product comes out of it at all then it will take a
couple of years.
