Hello,
now we opted for a solution without being dependent on RO altogether.
Thank you for your help.

we are doing a Infiniband/RoCE project on Linux/x86_64 based on

serialize the RDMA requests on the server in the strict order as issued
on
the client.
Does your x86 system really enable PCI relaxed ordering in the first place?
