Thanks Christoph for writing up this excellent summary. In case anyone
is wondering which LLD changes Christoph is referring to: the tests I
ran myself were with an SRP initiator driver modified to use multiple
RDMA channels between initiator and target instead of a single channel.
I will post these changes for review on the linux-rdma mailing list as
soon as I have the time.
Bart.
