Have you looked at any of the work that the PXI group has done on NTB
support within PXI?
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/12523/en
I was on that working group, and one of the first capabilities I
suggested for it was IP over NTB - I was going to implement this at my
employer, but the project took a different turn and this idea got put on
the back burner. I am glad somebody else has seen fit to take it up.
Also, a stupid question but one I have to ask: have you taken into
account the idea that the CPUs on each side of the NTB might have
different endian-ness? I was looking at a case with a PPC on one side of
the bridge and an X86 on the other.
