+ This driver implements the InfiniBand RDMA transport over
+ the Linux network stack. It enables a system with a
+ standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a RoCE
+ adapter or with another system running the RXE driver.
+ Documentation on InfiniBand and RoCE can be downloaded at
+ www.infinibandta.org and www.openfabrics.org. (See also
+ siw which is a similar software driver for iWARP.)
+
+ The driver is split into two layers, one interfaces with the
+ Linux RDMA stack and implements a kernel or user space
+ verbs API. The user space verbs API requires a support
+ library named librxe which is loaded by the generic user
+ space verbs API, libibverbs. The other layer interfaces
+ with the Linux network stack at layer 3.
+
+ To configure and work with soft-RoCE driver please use the
+ following wiki page under "configure Soft-RoCE (RXE)" section:
