[openib-general] dapltest question

[Steve Wise]

Hey James,

When running something like this:

#====================================================================
#client6
#====================================================================
./dapltest -T T -s ${host} -D ${device} -i 10000 -t 4 -w 8 \
        client SR 256                                      \
        server RW 4096                                     \
        server SR 256                                      \
        client SR 256                                      \
        server RW 4096                                     \
        server SR 256                                      \
        client SR 4096                                     \
        server SR 256


Do the transactions execute in order?  IE: Will each client first run
the SR 256 test, then the server will run the RW 4096 test, etc?  Or do
the client and server run through their respective tests in parallel?
I'm seeing a problem with the chelsio rnic where it appears that
sometimes the server sends an FPDU first, and that is not allowed in the
mpa spec.  In other words, does the dapltest client always send the
first FPDU?


MPA draft:

4.  MPA "Responder" mode implementations MUST receive and validate at
       least one FPDU before sending any FPDUs or markers.


Thanks,

Steve.
