These have seen some testing, but there remain some corner cases that I need to chase down. Therefore this posting is for review only. The two main changes in this series are: 1. Break RPC-over-RDMA connections after an RPC timeout. This gives the client's CM an opportunity to perform server and network path rediscovery before retrying the timed-out RPC. This design was selected because it is simple, and does not make any changes to the normal RPC Call send hot path. Also, note the logic already in xprt_rdma_send_request() that breaks the connection anyway just before sending a retransmit. 2. Support unloading the driver of the underlying device. Full support for the DEVICE_REMOVAL CM upcall is implemented in the client-side RPC-over-RDMA consumer. Devesh's workaround is reverted, since it is now no longer necessary. In addition, support is added for restoring transport operation when a new driver is subsequently loaded or when another device is already available with connectivity to the NFS server. Hopefully this is the basis for device hotplug, suspend/resume with NFS/RDMA mounts, and handling device failover.
