What do you mean about this sentence? Do you mean that no any (ISM/RDMA) device found is not real error? If not, what is the real reason?

initializing device or when initializing connection, is real errors, and
should be store in ini->rc.

SMC_CLC_DECL_DIFFPREFIX also is not a real error, as for SMC-RV2, it is
not require same prefix.

Hi Guangguan,

Generally, I think this is right. Fallback in one kind of device should
not be the final fallback reason.

But what if we have more than one device and failed more than once, for
example:
Let's say we have an ISM device, a RDMA device. First we looked the ISM device
and failed during the initialization, we got a fallback reason A. Then we
looked for the RDMA device, and failed again, with another reason B.
Finally, we fallback to TCP. What should fallback reason be ?

IMO, the order of finding devices is defined by preference. ISM v2, ISM v1, RDMA v2, RDMA v1, the former the prefer.
I think it should return the most preferred device's failure reason if found and failed during the initialization.
So, here should return the first reason(reason A).

In this case Dust mentioned, I'd prefer a reaon including A and B, like current reason SMC_CLC_DECL_NOSMCDEV.


OTOH, SMC_CLC_DECL_NOSMCD2DEV is only used here. Removing it would mean
that we would never see SMC_CLC_DECL_NOSMCD2DEV in the fallback reason,
which makes it meaningless.

Is SMC_CLC_DECL_NOSMCD2DEV really necessary? There is no reason names SMC_CLC_DECL_NOSMCR2DEV.

I do see the necessity for the debugging.
Thanks,
Guangguan Wang
