Hello Olaf,
I'm working on QoS management in OFED.
I noticed the following in the rds.h:
/*
* XXX randomly chosen, but at least seems to be unused:
* # 18464-18768 Unassigned
* We should do better. We want a reserved port to discourage unpriv'ed
* userspace from listening.
*
* port 18633 was the version that had ack frames on the wire.
*/
#define RDS_PORT 18634
I'm using this port number to recognize RDS
connection in QoS manager (OpenSM).
How 'solid' is this RDS_PORT definition?
Will it be standardized somehow?
Do you have some plans to change it?
Thanks
