I believe that there's a difference here. For the Infiniband CM, an allocation error behaves the same as if the received MAD were lost or dropped. Since MADs are unreliable anyway, it's not so much that an IB CM event gets lost, as it doesn't ever occur. A remote CM should retry the send, which hopefully allows the connection to make forward progress. - Sean - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
