<TITLE>RE: [openib-general] matching an RMPP NACK to send or receive?</TITLE>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Sean,</FONT>
</P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> Suppose two systems initiate RMPP transfers to each other. Each system </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> would be sending and reassembling RMPP messages. Both could select the same </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> TID.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>EZ: TID should consist of a client selected part and process ID. For kernels I would select some part of the GUID too.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>We need to minimize cases of same TID use. But in such case - abort both of them.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> Does that make more sense?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>EZ: Yes - but once the TID is the same I do not think there is an answer.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Another thought might be that if an active TID exists in the system a new RMPP transaction with same TID should be denied...</FONT></P>
