Somehow nvme-rdma works: module_init(nvme_rdma_init_module); -> nvme_rdma_init_module -> nvmf_register_transport(&nvme_rdma_transport); -> nvme_rdma_create_ctrl -> nvme_rdma_setup_ctrl -> nvme_rdma_configure_admin_queue -> nvme_rdma_alloc_queue -> rdma_create_id > module_exit(rnbd_srv_cleanup_module); > -- > 2.25.1 >
