From: Kiran Patil <kiran.patil@xxxxxxxxx>
Problem: Linux based SW target (TCM) connected to windows initiator was unable to satisfy
write request of size > 2K.
Fix: Existing linux implememtation of FCoE stack is expecting sequence number to match w.r.t
incoming framme. When DDP is used on target in response to write request from initiator, SW
stack is notified only when last data frame arrives and only the pakcket header of last data
frame is posted to NetRx queue of storage. When that last packet was processed in libfc:Exchange
layer, implementation was expecting sequence number to match, but in this case sequence number
which is embedded in FC Header is assigned by windows initaitor, hence due to sequence number mismatch
post-processing which shall result into sending RSP is not done. Enhanced the code to
utilize the sequence number of incoming last frame and process the packet so that, it
will eventually complete the write request by sending write response (RSP) GOOD.
Notes/Dependencies: This patch is validated using windows and linux initiator to make
sure, it doesn't break anything.
