RDMA/rxe: Fix rnr retry behavior
[ Upstream commit 445fd4f4fb76d513de6b05b08b3a4d0bb980fc80 ]
Currently the completer tasklet when retransmit timer or the rnr timer
fires the same flag (qp->req.need_retry) is set so that if either timer
fires it will attempt to perform a retry flow on the send queue. This has
the effect of responding to an RNR NAK at the first retransmit timer event
which might not allow the requested rnr timeout.
This patch adds a new flag (qp->req.wait_for_rnr_timer) which, if set,
prevents a retry flow until the rnr nak timer fires.
This patch fixes rnr retry errors which can be observed by running the
pyverbs test_rdmacm_async_traffic_external_qp multiple times. With this
patch applied they do not occur.
