I would drop perftest out.  Here's why.  I like the idea that this
package is for software that interacts with the kernel directly.  It
needs to, in some way, involve itself with the kernel char interface or
with the kernel netlink interface.  So far, everything meets that
critera.  Perftest does not.  So, in the same fashion as libfabrics and
fabtests, I would leave perftest out, but that isn't to say a separate
package that pulled together various testing apps for RDMA could be
created too.
