A TID RDMA READ request could be retried under one of the following conditions: - The RC retry timer expires; - A later TID RDMA READ RESP packet is received before the next expected one. For the latter, under normal conditions, the PSN in IB space is used for comparison. More specifically, the IB PSN in the incoming TID RDMA READ RESP packet is compared with the last IB PSN of a given TID RDMA READ request to determine if the request should be retried. This is similar to the retry logic for noraml RDMA READ request.
However, if a TID RDMA READ RESP packet is lost due to congestion, header suppresion will be disabled and each incoming packet will raise an interrupt until the hardware flow is reloaded. Under this condition, each packet KDETH PSN will be checked by software against r_next_psn and a retry will be requested if the packet KDETH PSN is later than r_next_psn. Since each TID RDMA READ segment could have up to 64 packets and each TID RDMA READ request could have many segments, we could make far more retries under such conditions, and thus leading to RETRY_EXC_ERR status.
This patch fixes the issue by removing the retry when the incoming packet KDETH PSN is later than r_next_psn. Instead, it resorts to RC timer and normal IB PSN comparison for any request retry.
