NVMe over Fabrics

[David Somayajulu]

During this year's BSDCAN I came to know that NVMe over Fabric code was released by Intel under GPL license and hence could not be ported to FreeBSD.



Is there a parallel implementation for FreeBSD underway ? Also is there anyone in Intel that we can work with to have the code dual licensed.

Thanks

So have any products started shipping?
[David S] Not to the best of my knowledge.

On a mildly tangential note, I've done a CAM front end for NVMe and have made
allowances for having non-PCIe transports while doing that.
[David S]Is the code already checked in some where ?
