So to summarize your view on this topic: * Agreed that user experience should be such that after an RDMA device reset everything should continue as before without admin intervention.
Yes
* Both for host and target stacks.
Yes
* This should not be handled by the driver itself. * A userspace daemon that listens on udev events should retry the reconnects or re-binds using configfs.
No, I'm saying transient errors should be handled by the driver itself, recovery from permanent errors (like unplug+replug) should be handled outside the kernel. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
