I don't think that's much of a concern. If you change RoCE to work over
non-converged ethernet (really meaning lossy ethernet), then you have to
have an underlying transport that guarantees packet delivery in the face
of losses...like TCP...and then you have iWARP ;-)
Anyway, I picked this up for 4.2 Ira.
