[PATCH for-rc v2 3/4] RDMA/rxe: Fix rnr retry behavior

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

 



Currently the completer tasklet when it sets the retransmit timer or the
rnr timer sets the same flag (qp->req.need_retry) so that if either
timer fires it will attempt to perform a retry flow on the send queue.
This has the effect of responding to an RNR NAK at the first retransmit
timer event which might not allow for the requested rnr timeout.

This patch adds a new flag (qp->req.wait_for_rnr_timer) which, if set,
prevents a retry flow until the rnr nak timer fires.

This patch fixes rnr retry errors which can be observed by running the
pyverbs test_rdmacm_async_traffic_external_qp multiple times. With this
patch applied they do not occur.

  Added comments and changed the name of the new flag to make things
  more understandable per an email exchange with Tom Talpey.
