Comment 5 for bug 2006557

This is functionality is going to be important for our customers. RDMA / RoCE are used extensively in our clusters, and we're going to run into more cases where people need to be able to trace the RDMA traffic. There are other tools in Ubuntu to manage OFED devices and RDMA, so RDMA support is there in general, but this one piece is missing. In short, tcpdump is intended to capture a variety of traffic protocols, and RDMA is one of those protocols which is seeing increased use.

Apparently Fedora has already created an RDMA enabled libpcap. A container based on fedora:latest is able to capture RDMA traffic with tcpdump. Is there maybe something there that could be leveraged?
