It's 2 ports on 1 PCI function. This feature doesn't do that for mlx5, there are still 2 PCI functions.

RDMA traffic is easy to identify and steer accordingly, generic traffic over a Raw QP is not. -- 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
