Hello Roman,

Thank you for having shared these results. But please do not expect me
to have another look at IBNBD before the design bugs in the driver and
also in the protocol get fixed. The presentation during Vault 2017 made
it clear that the driver does not scale if more than two CPUs submit I/O
simultaneously at the initiator side. The comments Sagi posted should be
addressed but I haven't seen any progress from the IBNBD authors with
regard to these comments ...
