Hi Omar,

The only other way I can think of to verify whether the SRP initiator 
and target drivers support iWARP is by loading the SRP drivers, loading 
the iWARP driver, by configuring LIO + ib_srpt and by attempting to set 
up a connection. However, I assume that's way more than what a _have() 
test should do?

Bart.
