The plan is to replace the local bespoke code that constructs and posts RDMA Read and Write Work Requests with calls to the rdma_rw API. This shares code with other RDMA-enabled ULPs that manages the gory details of buffer registration and posting Work Requests. Some design notes: o The structure of RPC-over-RDMA transport headers is flexible, allowing multiple segments per Reply with arbitrary alignment, each with a unique R_key. Write and Send WRs continue to be built and posted in separate code paths. However, one whole chunk (with one or more RDMA segments apiece) gets exactly one ib_post_send and one work completion. o svc_xprt reference counting is modified, since a chain of rdma_rw_ctx structs generates one completion, no matter how many Write WRs are posted. o The current code builds the transport header as it is construct- ing Write WRs. I've replaced that with marshaling of transport header data items in a separate step. This is because the exact structure of client-provided segments may not align with the components of the server's reply xdr_buf, or the pages in the page list. Thus parts of each client-provided segment may be written at different points in the send path. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
