RDMA problems in gluster on host with MIC

Hi,
after I have configured ibscif virtual connector for Infiniband  the RDMA gluster transport does not works anymore.

I have CentOS 6.6 and OFED 3.12-1 MPSS 3.5.2 and I have followed the installation instructions of MPSS_Users_Guide (Revision 3.5) that suggested to remove
compat-rdma-devel and compat-rdma packages.

I have noted that running the command:
ib_send_bw
gives the following error:

# ib_send_bw

Instead using the output of the command

ib_send_bw -d qib0

gives correct results:

# ib_send_bw -d qib0
