Hi, RoCE support in SRIOV was added in upstream kernel 3.14 :

commit 39e7d095f9d0a82a78804650917cd57972a480ce
Merge: 36f6fdb aa9a2d5
Author: David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Wed Mar 12 15:57:26 2014 -0400

    Merge branch 'mlx4-next'

    Or Gerlitz says:

    ====================
    mlx4: Add SRIOV support for RoCE

    This series adds SRIOV support for RoCE (RDMA over Ethernet) to the mlx4 driver.

    The patches are against net-next, as of commit 2d8d40a "pkt_sched: fq:
    do not hold qdisc lock while allocating memory"

    changes from V1:
     - addressed feedback from Dave on patch #3 and changed get_real_sgid_index()
       to be called fill_in_real_sgid_index() and be a void  function.
     - removed some checkpatch warnings on long lines

    changes from V0:
      - always check the return code of mlx4_get_roce_gid_from_slave().
        The call we fixed is introduced in patch #1 and later removed by
        patch #3 that allows guests to have multiple GIDS. The 1..3
        separation was done for proper division of patches to logical changes.
    ====================
