> This patch removes rdma_get/set_option(). Is that what you intended?
Yes. I wanted to reconsider the approach here.
I believe that there's a cleaner implementation for getting path records that
involves a userspace SA library/daemon than going through the rdma cm. And no
one was using the option to set a specific path.
For the CM timeout options, those were added to support uDAPL, but I believe
that a better approach which would accomplish the higher level goal is to have
the kernel rdma cm issue MRA (message received acknowledged) messages for
clients which are slow to respond to requests.
