And the normal rule of thumb > of "if we have 3 users, then it is a semi-sane api" really applies here. Based on recent discussions I'm expecting: - Intel SOF - New Intel RDMA driver - mlx5 RDMA driver conversion - mlx4 RDMA driver conversion - mlx5 subdevice feature for netdev - Intel IDXD vfio-mdev - Habana Labs Gaudi netdev driver Will use this in the short term. I would like, but don't expect too see, the other RDMA RoCE drivers converted - cxgb3/4, i40iw, hns, ocrdma, and qedr. It solves an annoying module loading problem we have. We've seen the New Intel RDMA driver many months ago, if patch 1 is going to stay the same we should post some of the mlx items next week. It is hard to co-ordinate all of this already, having some general agreement that there is nothing fundamentally objectionable about ancillary bus will help alot. Jason
