108700e3e7SMoni Shoua	This driver implements the InfiniBand RDMA transport over
118700e3e7SMoni Shoua	the Linux network stack. It enables a system with a
128700e3e7SMoni Shoua	standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a RoCE
138700e3e7SMoni Shoua	adapter or with another system running the RXE driver.
148700e3e7SMoni Shoua	Documentation on InfiniBand and RoCE can be downloaded at
158700e3e7SMoni Shoua	www.infinibandta.org and www.openfabrics.org. (See also
168700e3e7SMoni Shoua	siw which is a similar software driver for iWARP.)
178700e3e7SMoni Shoua
188700e3e7SMoni Shoua	The driver is split into two layers, one interfaces with the
198700e3e7SMoni Shoua	Linux RDMA stack and implements a kernel or user space
208700e3e7SMoni Shoua	verbs API. The user space verbs API requires a support
218700e3e7SMoni Shoua	library named librxe which is loaded by the generic user
228700e3e7SMoni Shoua	space verbs API, libibverbs. The other layer interfaces
238700e3e7SMoni Shoua	with the Linux network stack at layer 3.
