When the size of the RPC message is near the inline threshold (1KB),
the client would allow messages to be sent that were a few bytes too
large.
When marshaling RPC/RDMA requests, ensure the combined size of
RPC/RDMA header and RPC header do not exceed the inline threshold.
Endpoints typically reject RPC/RDMA messages that exceed the size
of their receive buffers.
The two server implementations I test with (Linux and Solaris) use
receive buffers that are larger than the client’s inline threshold.
Thus so far this has been benign, observed only by code inspection.
