Hey folks,

Firstly i want to say thank you to all you guys, especially Bob, who
in the
past 1+ month, gave me a lots of idea and inspiration.

I would like it if someone familiar with rxe could reviewed-by the
protocol parts.

Hi, Jason

I reviewed these patches. I am fine with these patches.

Hi, Zhijian

I noticed the followings:
"
$ ./rdma_flush_server -s [server_address] -p [port_number]
client:
$ ./rdma_flush_client -s [server_address] -p [port_number]
"
Can you merge the server and the client to rdma-core?

Yanjun,

Yes, there was already a draft PR here
https://github.com/linux-rdma/rdma-core/pull/1181, but it cannot go
ahead until the kernel's patches are merged.

and i will post a new version these days, would you mind if i add your
"Reviewed-by" in next version ?

Thanks.

Another problem, normally rxe should connect to physical ib devices, such as mlx ib device. That is, one host is rxe, the other host is mlx ib device. The rdma connection should be created between the 2 hosts.

Do you connect to mlx ib device with this RDMA FLUSH operation?
And what is the test result?

Thanks a lot.
Zhu Yanjun





Thanks,
