There's a possibly-important detail here. Not all RDMA transports have
"IETF-approved congestion control", for example, RoCEv1. However, iWARP
and (arguably) RoCEv2 do. On the other hand, as a nonroutable protocol,
RoCEv1 may not fall under this restriction.

Net-net, inspecting only the RDMA attribute of the transport may be
insufficient here.

It could be argued however that the xprtrdma layer, with its rpcrdma
crediting, provides such congestion. But that needs to be made
explicit, and perhaps, discussed in IETF. Initially, I think it would
be important to flag this as a point for the future. For now, it may
be best to flag RoCEv1 as not supporting congestion.

Tom.
