Which user land tools are you referring to not using retries ? Certain infiniband-diags do use the retry mechanism while others do not. It depends on the (nature of the) diag command. The simple manual query/response ones (using umad_send) do not use retry whereas others (more sophisticated ones like ibnetdiscover) do. In any case, if retries are appropriate and not currently implemented, it is simple to add them in. -- Hal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
