Currently, for an app to open a raw QP from user space, we (verbs) require admin permission, for which we (Mellanox) got customer feedback saying this is problematic on some of the environments. Suppose we allow to user to provide source mac+vlan when creating the QP or when modifying its state, and the HW can enforce that -- in that case I think its OK to remove that restriction e.g ala what is allowed today with user space UD QPs when the fabric is IB.
