[PATCH for-next v2] RDMA/cma: Fix incorrect Packet Lifetime calculation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



An approximation for the PacketLifeTime is half the local ACK timeout.
The encoding for both timers are logarithmic.

If the local ACK timeout is set, but zero, it means the timer is
disabled. In this case, we choose the CMA_IBOE_PACKET_LIFETIME value,
since 50% of infinite makes no sense.

Before this commit, the PacketLifeTime became 255 if local ACK
timeout was zero (not running).

Fixed by explicitly testing for timeout being zero.

	v1 -> v2:
	   * Rebased on tip of for-next with ("RDMA/cma: Protect RMW
	     with qp_mutex") included
	   * A local ACK timeout of zero now sets PacketLifeTime to
             CMA_IBOE_PACKET_LIFETIME
	   * Added Leon's r-b
