[PATCH v2 0/3] avoid plaintext rdma offload if encryption is required

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I think it is a security problem to send confidential data in plaintext
over the wire, so we should avoid doing that even if rdma is in use.

We already have a similar check to prevent data integrity problems
for rdma offload.

Modern Windows servers support signed and encrypted rdma offload,
but we don't support this yet...

Changes v2:
- Added missing Cc: list on commit 2/3

Stefan Metzmacher (3):
  cifs: introduce cifs_io_parms in smb2_async_writev()
  cifs: split out smb3_use_rdma_offload() helper
  cifs: don't try to use rdma offload on encrypted connections
