Subject: Re: [PATCH net v9 5/6] net/smc: keep an RDMA write inside the peer's RMBE

> smc_tx_rdma_writes() takes the length of a write from peer_rmbe_space
> and decides from the cursor wraps whether the destination is one chunk
> or two. Both follow the peer's consumer cursor, which nothing bounds: a
> forged one takes a one-chunk write past the peer's RMBE, and so does a
> conforming peer that keeps reading across the end of its RMBE before
> the resend after an SMC-R link failover. With one RMBE per RMB, as
> Linux allocates them, the peer's HCA refuses the write and the link
> goes down.

> Write at most one RMBE per call and end the first chunk no later than
> the RMBE, whatever the wraps say. A conforming peer outside failover
> gets the chunks it got before. A write that was one chunk can now be
> two, which needs "net/smc: keep the source of an RDMA write inside the
> send buffer"; the first chunk needs prod.count inside the RMBE, which
> "net/smc: bound the link failover cursor advance to the send buffer"
> keeps at failover.
