Thanks.
If I got you correctly, FLUSH and Atomic Write is a new feature. And
from the test result, it is not supported by MLX driver currently.
Wait for MLX Engineer for updates about FLUSH and Atomic Write.
IMO, it had better make rxe successfully connect to one physical ib
device with FLUSH and Atomic Write, such as MLX or others.
