- tristate "Software RDMA over Ethernet (RoCE) driver"
- depends on INET && PCI && INFINIBAND
- depends on NET_UDP_TUNNEL
- ---help---
- This driver implements the InfiniBand RDMA transport over
- the Linux network stack. It enables a system with a
- standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a RoCE
- adapter or with another system running the RXE driver.
- Documentation on InfiniBand and RoCE can be downloaded at
- www.infinibandta.org and www.openfabrics.org. (See also
- siw which is a similar software driver for iWARP.)
- The driver is split into two layers, one interfaces with the
- Linux RDMA stack and implements a kernel or user space
- verbs API. The user space verbs API requires a support
- library named librxe which is loaded by the generic user
- space verbs API, libibverbs. The other layer interfaces
- with the Linux network stack at layer 3.
- To configure and work with soft-RoCE driver please use the
- following wiki page under "configure Soft-RoCE (RXE)" section:
