All right, I'm done traveling for a bit and it seems like this discussion has settled into a stalemate so let's try to pick things back up and sort this out. Starting we a better RDMA education for me. So far the discussion has been around providing access controls at the transport layer, are there any RDMA entities that are transport agnostic that might be better suited for what we are trying to do? Or is it simply that the RDMA layer is tied so tightly to the underlying transport that we can't separate the two and have to consider them as one? -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
