.SH LINKx (LNX) provider (Technology Preview)
.PP
The LNX provider is designed to link two or more providers, allowing
applications to seamlessly use multiple providers or NICs.
This provider uses the libfabric peer infrastructure to aid in the use
of the underlying providers.
This version of the provider currently supports linking the libfabric
shared memory provider for intra-node traffic and another provider for
inter-node traffic.
Future releases of the provider will allow linking any number of
providers and provide the users with the ability to influence the way
the providers are utilized for traffic load.
