This package is a hardware driver that enables Chelsio T4 hardware to be used as an iWARP capable device in combination with the libibverbs package. The libibverbs package is the hardware independent RDMA library, and the libcxgb4 package is one of multiple possible hardware driver modules that are abstracted out by libibverbs. The package for review can be found at the URL above.

I don't have this hardware, so I can't test further unfortunately. I noticed that libmlx4-static provides libmlx4-devel-static. What's up with that? Should libcxgb4-static do the same?
libmlx4 provides libmlx4-devel-static because early versions of the package provided that. We switched the package naming over to the more standard compliant base base-devel base-static long ago and the old provides is in libmlx4 to keep any software that didn't get updated from breaking. Libcxgb4 has no such broken history and need not provide -devel-static as a package.
Albert, are you good with signing off on this package at this point?
Looks good to me.
