[ofa-general] SDP overhead

Every SDP data frame has a fixed size 16 byte header.

Largest SDP frame is 32K + 16 byte header in OFED 1.2 implementation.

Ack overhead for credit replenish is just the header (16 bytes), but can
be carried 'for free' in bidirectional sessions. 

Thanks,

Hello,

Can somebody tell me what the overhead is of an SDP packet when the
packet is completely filled with data?

The numbers I want to have are:
max data length of 1 packet
total header length of 1 packet

Regards,

Koen Segers
