Maybe you can help me understand the spec here. If we ignore this feature for a minute, then the side that calls rdma_connect() must instead issue the first 'send' request to the server. Can the first 'send' be a 0B rdma write or read? Why wouldn't the target of that request not have to transition to connected? Is the issue that there's no way for the receiving FW/driver to know that this has occurred so that it can signal that the connection has been established? I.e. a client that does this must signal the server that things are ready through some out of band means. >server sends MPA Start response with "lets do RTR and send me X" where >X could be 0B write, 0B read request or 0B send. Are there any restrictions where a client may not be able to issue what the server requests? E.g. the hardware doesn't issue 0B writes. - Sean _______________________________________________ ewg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg
