0-day is checking my tree, so it is not the problem.

I don't see how kernel-ci can help me, because RDMA requires special
hardware to run it and it usually requires more than two endpoints (servers)
connected together.

My problem is related to changes in other trees for example netdev, which
can break RDMA functionality.

Technology wise, there are:
1. RoCE - RDMA over Converged Ethernet - netdev is below RDMA
2. IPoIB - IP over Infiniband - netdev is above RDMA
3. HFI-VNIC - Ethernet over OmniPath - netdev is above RDMA
4. iWARP - RDMA over IP networks
e.t.c.
