Aren't there 3 cases possible here: (1) non RMPP request/RMPP response (e.g. SA GetTable for one), (2) RMPP request/RMPP response (e.g. SA GetMulti), and (3) RMPP request/non RMPP response (I don't think this currently exists but may be mistaken). Are all handled on the initiator/requester side ? Are the changes only for case (2) ? > On the responder side, DS RMPP is detected when an RMPP response is sent > in response to an RMPP request. The responder side sounds more straightforward. -- Hal > - Sean > _______________________________________________ > openib-general mailing list > openib-general@openib.org > http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general > > To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
