RDMA Infiniband support in FreeBSD

Last time I tested FreeBSD 10.0, the basic IB stack was working well 
(Mellanox HCAs only), but IPOIB support was not usable. Hence, 
throughput was limited to well below the hardware transfer speed for NFS 
or any other TCP/IP based protocol.  Mellanox developers have been 
working on it, but I haven't checked the status lately.  You might find 
something in recent FreeBSD kernel commit logs.

Cheers,
