Hi Jeff,

Good point, thanks! We will update the draft accordingly.

One potential issue might be that UDP source port has 2-byte and QP has 3-byte. 
Since there are only 2^16 UDP source ports, each UD QP should choose a source 
port number smaller than 65535. And the total number of UD QPs should not 
exceed 65536. Otherwise, it will have problems. 

Regards
David

(draft-zhou-sfc-sinc)

Hey,

QPs are never exposed to the Eth/IP/UDP RoCEv2 network/devices, however, in 
most cases, to preserve ordering within QPs, QPs are mapped into 5 tuples, 
since the only mutable header in RoCEv2(or similar RDMA over IP/UDP protocols) 
is the UDP source port (destination is set to 4791),  each QP between a given 
pair of sender and receiver gets its own UDP source port (which also allows to 
per QP/flow hashing in the network).

Cheers,
Jeff
