I agree, and would like to see a fix. It's obviously going to be a very
useful use case for CI environments for upper layer storage protocols
such as NFS and SMB, for instance.

My understanding is that, because RoCE allows more than one port per egress
device, the mechanism for enabling rxe-on-lo is going to be different than
it is for iWARP -- or it might not be possible at all. That's why my siw
patches do not implement a fix for rxe.

Jason needs to outline a mechanism for it so we can see what needs to be
done. At which point, any interested party should be able to fix it.
