Roland, Paul,

Putting a side for a moment the detailed discussion we've started and 
looking on the concluding remarks you have made, I wasn't sure to 
follow:  if DCB isn't available (even from a silly reason of hw 
supporting pfc but patches not being pushed to the kernel...) what you 
think would function better (or function at all) for IBoE, lossy or 
globally paused Ethernet? I haven't managed so far to convince you that 
both aren't applicable for IBoE, but I also didn't manage to see what 
are you suggesting in the absence of DCB.

Or.
