[Beowulf] RHEL7 kernel update for L1TF vulnerability breaks RDMA

[Jörg Saßmannshausen]

Dear all,

is there some kind of quick test to demonstrate the patch does have or does 
not cause a problem with RDMA? I have been asked to look into that but I don't 
really want to use a large cp2k calculation which, I believe, makes use of 
RDMA.

All the best from London

Jörg
