libibverbs is a library that allows userspace processes to use RDMA
"verbs" as described in the InfiniBand Architecture Specification and
the RDMA Protocol Verbs Specification. This includes direct hardware
access from userspace to InfiniBand/iWARP adapters (kernel bypass) for
fast path operations.
Device-specific plug-in ibverbs userspace drivers are included:
- libbxnt_re: Broadcom NetXtreme-E RoCE HCA
- libmlx4: Mellanox ConnectX-3 InfiniBand HCA
- libmlx5: Mellanox Connect-IB/X-4+ InfiniBand HCA
- libqedr: QLogic QL4xxx RoCE HCA
- librxe: A software implementation of the RoCE protocol
