+ Direct Internal Buffer Sharing (DIBS)
+ A communication method that uses common physical (internal) memory
+ for synchronous direct access into a remote buffer.
+
+ Select this option to provide the abstraction layer between
+ dibs devices and dibs clients like the SMC protocol.
+ The module name is dibs.

+ bool "intra-OS shortcut with dibs loopback"
+ depends on DIBS
+ default n
+ help
+ DIBS_LO enables the creation of an software-emulated dibs device
+ named lo which can be used for transferring data when communication
+ occurs within the same OS. This helps in convenient testing of
+ dibs clients, since dibs loopback is independent of architecture or
+ hardware.
