Re: [PATCH v1 00/22] convert NFS server to new rdma_rw API

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Can you summarize the motivation for the change, for someone (like me)
that doesn't know much about RDMA?  Or does "significant cleanups" cover
it?

Are there any regressions?  For example, will it still support all the
same hardware?  Is there any change that will be noticeable to NFS/RDMA
users?
