/** * DOC: Omni Path Feature Negotion (OPFN) * * OPFN is a discovery protocol for Intel Omni-Path fabric that * allows two RC QPs to negotiate a common feature that both QPs * can support. Currently, the only OPA feature that OPFN * supports is TID RDMA. * * Architecture * * OPFN involves the communication between two QPs on the HFI * level on an Omni-Path fabric, and ULPs have no knowledge of * OPFN at all. * * Implementation * * OPFN extends the existing IB RC protocol with the following * changes: * -- Uses Bit 24 (reserved) of DWORD 1 of Base Transport * Header (BTH1) to indicate that the RC QP supports OPFN; * -- Uses a combination of RC COMPARE_SWAP opcode (0x13) and * the address U64_MAX (0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF) as an OPFN * request; The 64-bit data carried with the request/response * contains the parameters for negotiation and will be * defined in tid_rdma.c file; * -- Defines IB_WR_RESERVED3 as IB_WR_OPFN. * * The OPFN communication will be triggered when an RC QP * receives a request with Bit 24 of BTH1 set. The responder QP * will then post send an OPFN request with its local * parameters, which will be sent to the requester QP once all * existing requests on the responder QP side have been sent. * Once the requester QP receives the OPFN request, it will * keep a copy of the responder QP's parameters, and return a * response packet with its own local parameters. The responder * QP receives the response packet and keeps a copy of the requester * QP's parameters. After this exchange, each side has the parameters * for both sides and therefore can select the right parameters * for future transactions
