[ofa-general] Does IPonIB-CM consolidate connections?

Folks,

Suppose you have two nodes A & B.
Node A opens a connection to B using
IPonIB Connected Mode. Later, when B
wants to send to A, does the IPonIB-CM
code notice that a connection already
exists between the two nodes and
use it? or does it open a new connection?

Also RFC 4755 section 3.3 talks about
how you can deal with crossing REQ
messages so you that only end up with
one connection. Does OFED IPonIB-CM
do this?

Thanks,
-ted
