Do you mean to use RDMA Verbs API from within the Xen hypervisor itself (i.e. the "kernel-like" part) or just from the Xen toolstack? The former isn't likely to be possible without importing a full I/B stack into the hypervisor, a lot of work IMHO. The latter is just userspace, so you can use whatever libraries you would like. It might be useful if you took a step back and explained your end goal here since then we may be able to better guide you.
