Hi Tom,

I agree with Jason, the bit should be 1 by default, if defined as you propose.
Out-of-order is the norm, not the exception, for ULPs.
Honestly, I think you should perhaps consider making it the default on your
devices, and allowing only MLX-aware ULPs to turn it off.
There can be cases in deployment where responder has support for receiving out-of-order, but requester doesn't.
Yuck! So this needs to be negotiated end-to-end, and by the upper
layer? Talk about barriers to adoption, and opportunities for
disaster.
Tom.
