Re: [openib-general] [PATCH v2 04/13] Connection Manager

If you require more details on how this all works - it was fully explored 
in the IETF RDDP workgroup - may I suggest a reading of the RDMA Security 
Considerations draft which goes through many of the issues on how one 
relates to a host stack.   This complements the MPA spec and supports much 
of what Steve has already responded to during this string of e-mails.  We 
took a great deal of time and debate to insure this can work efficiently 
and without confusion in terms of who owns what and when.

Almost - except the case about where those skbs are coming from?
It looks like they are obtained from network, since it is ethernet
driver, and if they match some set of rules, they are considered as 
valid

MPA negotiation protocol.
They come from the Ethernet driver, but that driver manages multiple HW
queues and these packets come from an offload queue, not the NIC queue.
So the HW demultiplexes.
Ok, thanks for explaination.
