ERDMA_ABI_VERSION should be 2?

Why?

This field is for rdma-core and we don't have erdma provider in that
library yet. It always starts from 1 for new drivers.
Please check this link: http://mail.spinics.net/lists/linux-rdma/msg63012.html

Jason mentioned in this link:

"
/*
  * For 64 bit machines ABI version 1 and 2 are the same. Otherwise 32
  * bit machines require ABI version 2 which guarentees the user and
  * kernel use the same ABI.
  */
"

Even though I do not understand the reason, but as mentioned above, I think ERDMA_ABI_VERSION = 1 is fine, because ERDMA can only work in 64bit machines.

Thanks,
Cheng Xu
