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. > > Andrew --q7xFpbLMA4v1i4j3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEkhr/r4Op1/04yqaB5GN7iDZyWKcFAllo5NAACgkQ5GN7iDZy WKcLbA/8DwxBgfFg7U4y/MgLNX7IQUIv4fXwUxBzWNnCevFVEbFRWnPm80yImVc7 KOwhN0U1J339d2Yh1mHNR3bd6uWyckllftK4NISc6rmkYZxk6FPCedNKX0cklqIz c9Yzg9vW6a0Px518WgD7DQmm0UoScWcJwu5MVdtSEKdbW6Vvo8Kcuu41NqLbd98/ 9m70s/2L+F7vdoWqNR/9NS33XdsImzrn6xih1+K/OvNdyNKSiPAJoVoHoMZ4glhE +ZvdygxAXmYKE4/qDRYufW83Q/jvEPQkasy/PiyJm/IGheC5jq5irn8cCTUtKFSU ABfkg4FgVI1DDEkPG2dDruHRW3Tg4BJ6CCTfhkweCMmJ2W7YZ4YY8XM+YvGt75tJ bMLzc8N/AKmlw/Xu4gZKblFplOlPnsB6bXoOYA6OdkzbFjLxtL2+6ZUboF4Svmg1 9aFbZUntv4XzN3l/SqdGhgoW8oKc/ekYXLzobntSDmAzHTAdGf5GzTRt7Npb9lrs 3Z90Bpo4UgS2Bn81GF/Ri4zjJYkJ7DDDUPNszUZYMmGdaYChRxnCYt6gO3Uc6SlY MBKdr6rtqsIdYh3Hju4QEl/6sKn06M1hKnOF3i5l19LTvMEI+RnhzB23BawnaxeR hUieB+8ZJZwyzRM0FXQf1kO/D5mD80aB92H2K0HN57SHmHWectk= =4HHX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --q7xFpbLMA4v1i4j3--
