Thank you D. Wythe for your proposals, the prototype and measurements. They sound quite promising to us. > We need to carefully evaluate them and make sure everything is compatible with the existing implementations of SMC-D and SMC-R v1 and v2. In the typical s390 environment ROCE LAG is propably not good enough, as the card is still a single point of failure. So your ideas need to be compatible with link redundancy. We also need to consider that the extension of the protocol does not block other desirable extensions. Your prototype is very helpful for the understanding. Before submitting any code patches to net-next, we should agree on the details of the protocol extension. Maybe you could formulate your proposal in plain text, so we can discuss it here?
I am very pleased to hear that your team have interest in this proposals, and thanks a lot for your advise. We really appreciate your point of view about compatibility, In fact, we are working on some written drafts which compatibility is quite a important part, and will be shared here soon.
We also need to inform you that several public holidays are upcoming in the next weeks and several of our team will be out for summer vacation, so please allow for longer response times.
Thanks for your informing, that's totaly okay to us. May your holidays be full of warmth and cheer.
Kind regards Alexandra Winter
D. Wyther Thanks.
