I would recommend using the IB/RDMA stack from the upstream kernel or 
the one provided with one of the distros that picked SRIOV support from 
upstream into the bits they ship. Note that IB and Ethernet are 
supported for ConnectX VFs, but not yet RoCE.

Or.

Also note you need to do some preparations at the node (bios, kernel 
boot command line) level and card (re-burn the firmware with sriov 
support enabled, see the web or your mellanox rep) level.
