libibverbs is a library that allows userspace processes to use RDMA
"verbs" as described in the InfiniBand Architecture Specification and
the RDMA Protocol Verbs Specification. This includes direct hardware
access from userspace to InfiniBand/iWARP adapters (kernel bypass) for
fast path operations.
