       The  libibverbs  API  is  an  abstract  one.   It  is  agnostic  to  any  underlying  provider   specific
       implementation.   While  this  abstraction  has  the advantage of user applications portability, it has a
       performance penalty.  For some applications optimizing performance is more important than portability.

       The efa direct verbs API  is  intended  for  such  applications.   It  exposes  efa  specific  low  level
       operations, allowing the application to bypass the libibverbs API.

       The  direct  include  of  efadv.h  together  with  linkage  to  efa  library will allow usage of this new
       interface.

       This  provides  low  level  access to efa devices to perform direct operations, without general branching
       performed by libibverbs.
