+- In prior versions of Open MPI, InfiniBand and RoCE support was
+  provided through the openib BTL and ob1 PML plugins.  Starting with
+  Open MPI 4.0.0, InfiniBand support through the openib+ob1 plugins is
+  both deprecated and superseded by the UCX PML component.
+
+  UCX is an open-source optimized communication library which supports
+  multiple networks, including RoCE, InfiniBand, uGNI, TCP, shared
+  memory, and others.
+
+  While the openib BTL depended on libibverbs, the UCX PML depends on
+  the UCX library.  The UCX library can be downloaded from
+  http://www.openucx.org/ or from various Linux distribution
+  repositories (e.g., Fedora/RedHat yum repositories).  The UCX
+  library is also part of Mellanox OFED and Mellanox HPC-X binary
+  distributions.
+
+  Once installed, Open MPI can be built with UCX support by adding
+  --with-ucx to the Open MPI configure command. Once Open MPI is
+  configured to use UCX, the runtime will automatically select the UCX
+  PML if one of the supported networks is detected (e.g., InfiniBand).
+  It's possible to force using UCX in the mpirun or oshrun command
+  lines by specifying any or all of the following mca parameters:
+  "-mca pml ucx" for MPI point-to-point operations, "-mca spml ucx"
+  for OpenSHMEM support, and "-mca osc ucx" for MPI RMA (one-sided)
+  operations.
