RE: [RFCv2 00/15] RFCv2: Consolidated userspace RDMA library repo

The intent is to cover the user space component of the kernel.

So, if code is including uapi/rdma/* then it is a good candidate for
this tree.

Based on discussions so far, I would limit the scope to the 'common' or 'shared' or non-vendor-specific areas of the uAPI.

libacm, I am unclear on. Is it the recommended userspace component for
the netlink socket that Kaike? Is it coupled to librdmacm? If yes it
should probably come too.

Yes, this is the userspace daemon for the SA netlink socket.  And to be clear, it's ibacm, as it's a daemon not a library.  The librdmacm looks for and uses ibacm when present.

psm/psm2, I have no knowledge about this, it seems to meet the
qualification, but I haven't seen it follow a community model? I
don't have an impression that Intel would view that favorably..

I couldn't say for certain, but my guess is that the psm team would like to maintain this separately.  AFAIK, it has no dependency on verbs or the verbs uapi.

opensm is not qualified since it rides on the other libraries.

Not sure what distributed SA encompasses..

I'm not sure either at this point.  It used to ride completely on the other libraries.
