I disagree. This is for the CM consumer, not the CM itself. In this case, the CM must issue a reject that will be delivered to the remote application. The CM has no idea what private data format the remote application expects. >Now, I do not really object to inventing new rejection reasons: for example, >maybe we can invent one that lets us stick the errno value in private data >somehow - but it's not like there's no solution inside the spec, >and inventing a whole new reject reason just for userspace consumers >seems like a narrow approach to me. Unless we start enforcing a policy that kernel consumers must issue a reject before destroying a cm_id (while in the connecting phase), they have this problem. My claim is that the reject reasons are insufficient to cover all possible conditions, and adding a generic 'other' reject reason solves this. Using consumer defined, which is what is done today, is incorrect. As an alternate solution, we could also not send any reject and just let the connection time out on the remote side. - 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
