IB/mad: Add support for dual-sided RMPP transfers.
The implementation assumes that any RMPP request that requires a response uses DS RMPP. Based on the RMPP start-up scenarios defined by the spec, this should be a valid assumption. That is, there is no start-up scenario defined where an RMPP request is followed by a non-RMPP response. By having this assumption we avoid any API changes. In order for a node that supports DS RMPP to communicate with one that does not, RMPP responses assume a new window size of 1 if a DS ACK has not been received. (By DS ACK, I'm referring to the turn-around ACK after the final ACK of the request.) This is a slight spec deviation, but is necessary to allow communication with nodes that do not generate the DS ACK. It also handles the case when a response is sent after the request state has been discarded. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
