Re: [PATCH v4 2/4] iw_cxgb4: add queue drain functions

Hi Steve,
My knowledge is limited in this driver and I have no illusion that
question sounds naive, but why did you add these functions to this
specific driver? Do the other drivers need such update too?

Thanks

Hey Leon,

I added these so iSER and other storage protocols that are or will be using the drain logic will work on cxgb4.  IB devices should
not need device-specific drain logic since the common core drain works for IB (and I assume RoCE).  iWARP devices, however, require
device-specific logic.  Other iwarp drivers are iw_cxgb3 and iw_nes.

Yes, this is iWARP specific. Steve was kind enough to fix chelsio
drivers and we need someone to pick up nes so ULPs will be able to run
reliably over it.
