Subject: RDMA/cma: Use ACK timeout for RoCE packetLifeTime
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Patch-mainline: v5.5-rc1
Git-commit: e1ee1e62bec4a8968355517ea11b2a06b7364408
References: jsc#SLE-8449

The cma is currently using a hard-coded value, CMA_IBOE_PACKET_LIFETIME,
for the PacketLifeTime, as it can not be determined from the network.
This value might not be optimal for all networks.

The cma module supports the function rdma_set_ack_timeout to set the ACK
timeout for a QP associated with a connection. As per IBTA 12.7.34 local
ACK timeout = (2 * PacketLifeTime + Local CA’s ACK delay).  Assuming a
negligible local ACK delay, we can use PacketLifeTime = local ACK
timeout/2 as a reasonable approximation for RoCE networks.
