[Xen-devel] New Xen feature proposal -> Xen-IB Passthrough
Dear All, another very cool feature that I think Xen can have are a complete Passthrough Infiniband support in 4.0 release. I have view that this feature have start under Xen-IB, and in mercurial repository are a file called xen-smartio.hg that have an initial support, but last development are in date 19-Mar-2006! It''s a very very fantastic scenario have a dom0 that have access on disk in san environment with Infiniband speed! Wow! Why not?
