rdma: SVCRDMA recvfrom
This file implements the RDMA transport recvfrom function. The function dequeues work reqeust completion contexts from an I/O list that it shares with the I/O tasklet in svc_rdma_transport.c. For ONCRPC RDMA, an RPC may not be complete when it is received. Instead, the RDMA header that precedes the RPC message informs the transport where to get the RPC data from on the client and where to place it in the RPC message before it is delivered to the server. The svc_rdma_recvfrom function therefore, parses this RDMA header and issues any necessary RDMA operations to fetch the remainder of the RPC from the client. Special handling is required when the request involves an RDMA_READ. In this case, recvfrom submits the RDMA_READ requests to the underlying transport driver and then returns 0. When the transport completes the last RDMA_READ for the request, it enqueues it on a read completion queue and enqueues the transport. The recvfrom code favors this queue over the regular DTO queue when satisfying reads. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com> Acked-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.
