SMC-R provides a "sockets over RDMA" solution making use of
|
|
RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) technology to upgrade
|
|
AF_INET TCP connections transparently.
|
|
The Linux implementation of the SMC-R solution is designed as
|
|
a separate socket family SMC.

Warning: SMC will expose all memory for remote reads and writes
|
|
once a connection is established. Don't enable this option except
|
|
for tightly controlled lab environment.
