6 This driver implements the InfiniBand RDMA transport over
7 the Linux network stack. It enables a system with a
8 standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a RoCE
9 adapter or with another system running the RXE driver.
10 Documentation on InfiniBand and RoCE can be downloaded at
11 www.infinibandta.org and www.openfabrics.org. (See also
12 siw which is a similar software driver for iWARP.)

14 The driver is split into two layers, one interfaces with the
15 Linux RDMA stack and implements a kernel or user space
16 verbs API. The user space verbs API requires a support
17 library named librxe which is loaded by the generic user
18 space verbs API, libibverbs. The other layer interfaces
19 with the Linux network stack at layer 3.
