the last OFED update (r278886).
iWARP on FreeBSD is properly integrated with the network stack and the
iWARP drivers _never_ operate out of any private TCP port-space that is
invisible to the kernel. Instead, an iWARP connection shows up as a TCP
socket (which is what it is) fully visible to the kernel and standard
tools like netstat, sockstat, etc.
by placing appropriate #ifdefs around otherwise unused variables
or sections with functions called which are not available without
IPv6 support in the kernel.
Highlights:
- Multiple verbs API updates
- Support for RoCE, RDMA over ethernet
All hardware drivers depending on the common infiniband stack has been
updated aswell.

Update the OFED Infiniband core to the version supplied in Linux
version 3.7.
The update to OFED is nearly all additional defines and functions
with the exception of the addition of additional parameters to
ib_register_device() and the reg_user_mr callback.
In addition the ibcore (Infiniband core) and ipoib (IP over Infiniband)
have both been made into completely loadable modules to facilitate
testing of the OFED stack in FreeBSD.
Finally the Mellanox Infiniband drivers are now updated to the
latest version shipping with Linux 3.7.

- In sys/ofed/drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c, an enum struct member is
interpreted as an int, so cast it to an int.
- In sys/ofed/drivers/infiniband/core/ud_header.c, initialize the
packet_length variable in ib_ud_header_init(), to prevent undefined
behaviour.
- In sys/ofed/drivers/infiniband/ulp/sdp/sdp_rx.c, call rdma_notify()
with the correct enum type and value.
- In sys/ofed/include/linux/pci.h, change the PCI_DEVICE and PCI_VDEVICE
macros to use C99 struct initializers, so additional members can be
overridden.

- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.
Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

- Mark 'sdp' as requiring 'inet'.
- Always include "opt_inet.h" and "opt_inet6.h" and modify the IB
driver Makefiles to honor WITH/WITHOUT_INET/INET6/_SUPPORT options
to determine what should be enabled during a module build.
- Fix the mlxen(4) driver and the core IB code to compile without
if INET is disabled (including when both INET and INET6 are disabled).
