With 2.2-sr2, I still get a DREQ sent to the SRP target on reboot of Windows 2003 which causes the disk to show on the initiator but be inaccessible.

[CORE,INC] [PATCH 1/4] ib/cm: fix handling of REJ in REQ_RCVD state
If a REJ is received immediately after receiving a REQ, then a callback can be queued to the user for the REJ before the user has had a chance to see or process the REQ. The result is that the user will not have had a chance to set any context associated with the REQ, which can lead to a crash processing the REJ.

[PATCH 2/4] ib/cm: separate listen callback into own handler
Extract listen handling in cm_cep_handler into a separate handler.  This will simplify changes to support queuing connection requests and allow connection requests to move to a fetch model, rather than a callback model.

Since connection requests require allocating new resources, connection rates can be improved
by queuing the requests until the user has allocated the resources, then fetches the request.

[PATCH 3/4] ib/cm: poll for CM REQ events
Replace the callback mechanism for reporting connection requests with one that requires the user to poll for the events.  This allows queuing REQs in the CM until the user is ready to process the events.

Still provide a callback mechanism to notify the user that REQ events are ready to be retrieved.
This change improves the connection rate for winverbs when the user retrieves only a small number of requests at a time.

[NETDIRECT] [PATCH 4/4] winverbs/netdirect: add support for inline sends

By default, use inline sends, and allow user to limit inline send size through an environment variable.

To support existing deployments, winverbs make use of the same environment setting as the ibal ND provider.

Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty at intel.com>

Note: The kernel HCA drivers report 0 for the max inline send value for user space QPs, even if inline sends are enabled.  I didn't understand how to fix the kernel drivers, so they could report the correct value. The winverbs ND code simply returns the value that it uses when creating the QP.

   manual

**** Known Issues ****

HCA drivers are reclassified as BOOT_START drivers to support booting from
an SRP IOC.  An unfortunate side-effect is when WinOF 2.2 is installed
on a system for the first time, after installation a mandatory reboot is
Required by Windows.

After the WinOF.msi file has started installation, an errant
"Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard" window 'may' popup; XP & Svr 2003.

Just ignore or 'cancel' the errant FNHW popup window in order to proceed with
the installation. XP requires a cancel, for WLH & WNET, the notifier will
disappear on their own.

You do need to answer 'Yes' or 'Continue' to popup windows which refer to
Non-Logo'ed (aka, Non-WHQL'ed) drivers being installed.

If the install appears to hang, look around for popup windows requesting input
which are covered by other windows.
Such is the case on Server 2008 initial install - Answer 'yes' to always trust
the OpenFabrics Alliance as a SW publisher.

Please:
  Read the Release_notes.htm file!

  make 'sure' your HCA firmware is recent:
      vstat.exe displays HCA firmware version & PSID.
      flint.exe (found in the Mellanox firmware tools package) displays PSID.

Thank you,

WinOF Developers.
