iWARP is a protocol suite that enables efficient movement + of data across the network, building on Remote Direct Memory + Access, Direct Data Placement, and Marker PDU Aligned Framing. + It endeavors to avoid unnecessary (local) data copies and + offload work from the main CPU to dedicated hardware.

An initial commit adding iWARP support for the Intel X722 + family of network adapters is under review. This is an + important step towards introducing full iWARP support on + systems equipped with Intel C620 Series Chipsets. Currently, + with the iw_ixl driver, only the kVerbs API is + supported.
