Chuck Lever 5fac1c6ccc xprtrdma: Reset credit grant properly after a disconnect
[ Upstream commit ef739b2175 ]

On a fresh connection, an RPC/RDMA client is supposed to send only
one RPC Call until it gets a credit grant in the first RPC Reply
from the server [RFC 8166, Section 3.3.3].

There is a bug in the Linux client's credit accounting mechanism
introduced by commit e7ce710a88 ("xprtrdma: Avoid deadlock when
credit window is reset"). On connect, it simply dumps all pending
RPC Calls onto the new connection.

Servers have been tolerant of this bad behavior. Currently no server
implementation ever changes its credit grant over reconnects, and
servers always repost enough Receives before connections are fully
established.

To correct this issue, ensure that the client resets both the credit
grant _and_ the congestion window when handling a reconnect.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
