Hi,

Is that some variant on the RDMA concept? (see http://www.rdmaconsortium.org)

If so, please note that there is an ongoing effort to standardize
RDMA-over-TCP via the IETF, and (of course) a parallel effort to
integrate it into a future minor revision of NFSv4 (see
http://www.snia.org/tech_activities/workgroups/nfs_rdma)

Although it's too late in the game to add generic support for RDMA
into 2.5.x/2.6.x, this type of project is certainly a very interesting
candidate for inclusion in future kernels.

Cheers,
  Trond
