There is an assumption that rdmacm is used only between nodes in the same IB subnet, this why ARP resolution can be used to turn IP to GID in rdmacm. When dealing with IB communication between subnets this assumption is no longer valid. ARP resolution will get us the next hop device address and not the peer node's device address. To solve this issue, we will check user space if it can provide the GID of the peer node, and fail if not. We add a sequence number to identify each request and fill in the GID upon answer from userspace. Signed-off-by:
