Is there any major issues letting all users use it by setting /dev/knem to 666 ? It appears knem by default wants to only allow users of the rdma group (if defined) to access knem.
We are a generic provider and want everyone to be able to use it, just feels strange to restrict it, so I am trying to understand why that is the default.
