+ * rxe_mcast.c implements driver support for multicast transport.
+ * It is based on two data structures struct rxe_mcg ('mcg') and
+ * struct rxe_mca ('mca'). An mcg is allocated each time a qp is
+ * attached to a new mgid for the first time. These are indexed by
+ * a red-black tree using the mgid. This data structure is searched
+ * for the mcg when a multicast packet is received and when another
+ * qp is attached to the same mgid. It is cleaned up when the last qp
+ * is detached from the mcg. Each time a qp is attached to an mcg an
+ * mca is created. It holds a pointer to the qp and is added to a list
+ * of qp's that are attached to the mcg. The qp_list is used to replicate
+ * mcast packets in the rxe receive path.
