Add state for 3rd party cloud storage data paths #24

Open noelmcloughlin opened 4 years ago

noelmcloughlin commented 4 years ago

Various cloud storage vendors provide special hardware and/or configuration for the data path.

Support for these could be added to a generic state which handles-

third party kernel modules
additional linux modules, typically for infiniband
a workflow to install the driver

Typically for high-end storage networking stacks need extra bling.

A case study could be Mellanox adapter (with 10GigE support): http://www.mellanox.com/related-docs/prod_software/MLNX_EN_README.txt
