Is this code going to get invoked very often?

In practice, it would be invoked when matching any listen requests 
originating from the CMA (RDMA connection abstraction).

hrm..I'm not sure how to translate your answer into a workload.
e.g. which netperf or netpipe test would excercise this alot?
Or would it take something like MPI or specweb/ttcp?

The code will be invoked at least once for every connection that is established.

e.g something like:
for (i = 0; i < IB_CM_PRIVATE_DATA_COMPARE_SIZE/sizeof(unsigned 
long);
								i++)
	((unsigned long *)dst)[i] = ((unsigned long *)src)[i] 
					& ((unsigned long *)mask)[i];

Yes - something like this should work.  Thanks.

Do you need a patch?
I can submit one but it will be untested.

I will incorporate the change with the next set of updates.  Someone else 
pointed out that I'd need to make sure that there won't be any alignment issues.
