Are those kernel bypasses better than the Linux-based RDMA we've had for ages (on appropriate fabrics)?

One problem with RDMA is that it's not compatible with existing protocols.
It's existed for a fair while as Infiniband doing Linux by-pass; the comment didn't say TCP/IP. (The general technique pre-dates Linux, of course.)
