Currently, there are some discussions regarding the RDMA ABI. The current
proposed approach (after a lot of discussions in the OFVWG) is to have
driver dependent object types rather than the fixed set of IB object types
we have today.
AFAIK, some vendors might want to use the RDMA subsystem for a different
fabrics which has a different set of objects.
You could see RFCs for such concepts both from Mellanox and Intel on the
linux-rdma mailing list.

Saying that, maybe we need to make the resource types a bit more flexible
and dynamic.

That'd be back to square one and Christoph was dead against it too,
so...

Thanks.
