The Error Recovery Team discussed this in great detail during 2001 and 
concluded that the proposed action is problematic for technical and 
implementation reasons.  Consequently, the RFC is quite unambiguous that 
accepting or discarding is at the PDU granularity - partial PDUs are not 
consumed on the receiver and no partial PDU recovery either.

I believe it would be a violation.  The spec is very explicit about your 
scenario.   In addition to the text you quoted, section 6.7 further says 
the following:

"....(for immediate data in a command PDU, non-data PDU rule
below applies),...."

and the non-data PDU rule says:
"In case of immediate data being present on
a discarded command, the immediate data is implicitly recovered
when the task is retried...."

Sorry....

 Hi all,
 I am testing my iscsi target developed on MAC OS
X.Initially after LOgin is complete microsoft
initiator sends report Luns then Inquiry and then Read
capacity.After that it is sending read 10 with data
transfer length 512.Now in response to Read10 i send
DATA _IN pdu which has 512 bytes of data segment which
contains the data that i get from MAC's scsi layer.I
set the f=1 because only one data-in pdu ,i am setting
status bit 1 and sending status as good.
After receiving this response microsoft initiator
sends mode sense and asks for all mode pagess.I want
to know what could be the reason for this?
Also it exposes device with device tyep unknown and
number -1 what is the problem?
Pl. help i am badly stuck here .
Thanks
ulka

Ulka V:

As yet I know very nearly zero of iSCSI ... but speaking of SCSI 
generally, as in the t10.org texts, I can say:

> microsoft initiator
> sends mode sense and asks for all mode pagess.I want
> to know what could be the reason for this?

When PDT = x00 = DASD = HDD/ Flash, a fetch of all mode pages includes 
the header which includes the DSP ("device specific parameter") which 
includes a bit to say if the disk is rewritable, read-only, or absent.

> microsoft
> initiator sends report Luns then Inquiry and then Read
> capacity.After that it is sending read 10 with data
> transfer length 512.
> ...
> device tyep unknown

To me, "device type" = "peripheral device type" = PDT = mask x1F of 
byte 0 of op x12 "INQUIRY" data ... so if the Inquiry went well, I 
don't understand how the device type can be unknown.

I want to do cut and past's from RFC 3720 to some work I'm doing for =
FAIS (T11.5). But there is a copyright notice in 3720.

Is it legal for me to do the cut and past's? If so, should I use some =
particular notation that it came from RFC 3720?

Not sure this is helpfull or not...

Why would a reference with a  pointer to 3720 work ?

I am not a lawyer (nor do I play one on TV) so I won't advise you on
what  consitutes fair use

Eddy,

Can you quote RFC 3720 and then provide a reference to the RFC?

In other words, 

RFC 3720 states
"..."

Folks,
I am aware of a lot of discussions that have been going on recently 
regarding iSCSI/iSER operating on InfiniBand Networks.  There has been 
some authors that have been working to create some proposed wordage for 
the iSER document that would permit support of iSER by an InfiniBand 
Network.  Unfortunately, the work to propose some new wordage did not 
complete in time to avoid the IETF draft black-out period.  However, there 
was a document that was created that explained what was being discussed 
and why, and the WEB link to that document (on Julian's Web site) is 
included here:

http://www.haifa.il.ibm.com/satran/ips/iSER-in-an-IB-network-V9.pdf

I encourage you to take a look at this document.  It should also be noted 
that because of this work dealing with InfiniBand it was also possible to 
define how an SCTP implementation could also be created that could be 
conformant to some new proposed wordage for the iSER Draft (to be released 
some time after the Black-Out period).

Below is the introduction to the paper that was used as a base for some 
new proposed wordage.  (Please understand, this is not meant to do 
anything other than to start the discussions, I expect there will be a lot 
of additional work to clarify issues, and craft the most approprate 
wordage for the iSER document.)

Introduction

There has been great interest in defining how the iSCSI/iSER (iSCSI 
Extensions for RDMA) can be made to operate over an InfiniBand network 
instead of a previously defined protocol called SRP (SCSI RDMA Protocol). 
The SRP protocol lacked Storage Management and Discovery processes. 
Therefore, great interest in iSCSI/iSER (iSER for short) has developed 
since it has the management and discovery structure defined, built, or 
being built for iSCSI. This will also consolidate the efforts of both 
Ethernet and InfiniBand communities, and reduce the number of Storage 
protocols a user has to learn and maintain.
 
Several things are needed in order for an iSCSI/iSER over an InfiniBand 
(iSER/IB) network to operate.  They are:

1. Being able to exploit the fact that all the IB Initiator and Target 
nodes can also have an IP Transport (IP-over-IB a.k.a. IPoIB) and 
associated IP Addresses for standard iSCSI discovery and for address 
resolution.

2. A way for an iSCSI/iSER on IB Initiator to Login directly to an 
InfiniBand attached iSER storage node (without having to connect and send 
Login PDUs via TCP/IP).

3.  A way for an IB Initiator to choose, if it wishes, directly attached 
IB iSER Storage Nodes in preference to an iSER to iSCSI Gateway, or in 
preference to using TCP over IPoIB (Internet Protocol over InfiniBand) 
connection.

4. A way for iSER to operate on InfiniBand Channel Adapters supporting 
versions prior to 1.2 that does not support what is called a Zero Based 
Tagged Offset (ZBTO) or SendInvSE Messages. (Though the IB specification 
has been updated to support the new RDMA features that were introduced by 
iWARP, there are likely to be a number of systems that are only using IB 
hardware that only meet the pre version 1.2 specifications.  This would 
mean that they would not support the features called ZeroBasedTO (called 
in InfiniBand ZBVA) or SendInvSE Messages.)

Uhm, because the Windows SCSI layer asked it to?

Asking for all mode pages is a common operation on device connect. It 
lets the initiator learn what the target can do.

You should check your mode sense and inquiry data responses.

Take care,

John and Folks,

=20

The proposal seems rather complete and straight forward=20

=20

I believe running iSER over InfiniBand in addition to iWarp serves the
iSCSI cause=20

It allows iSCSI to span from the lowest end with pure software
implementations to the highest end with 30Gb/s InfiniBand hardware=20

Managing all of it with ubiquitous IP semantics, and with common
iSCSI/iSNS/SLP infrastructure=20

The InfiniBand community can also accelerate the iSER creation and
adoption=20

By pooling in more RDMA developers, and leveraging on existing HW and SW


=20

It looks like the required changes in the current iSER spec are only few
and are around the negotiation of Send/SendInvSE and ZBTO=20

And specifying that a Login can travel over the IB Reliable connection
rather than over TCP

=20

The Transport preference looks like something that should also be
defined some where=20

I believe its not covered for Ethernet as well today, I haven't seen a
definition of when iSCSI decides on using the RDMAExtensions option or
not (probably an implementation specific issue), and what happens when
we have both a NIC and an RNIC, do we decide base on Subnet Masks, ..

So it can either be part of iSER or specified somewhere else=20

=20

If people don't want to change much in the iSER Draft, Maybe it's
possible to add just the capability negotiation piece (SendInv, ZBTO),
and general comments on iSER usability over InfiniBand, and put all the
rest in an external draft that can be discussed separately=20

I can think of some use for non ZBTO (VA Based) for iWarp applications
as well

=20

All in all it's a good draft and good idea to add iSER binding to
InfiniBand=20

=20

Subject: [Ips] [iSCSI] iSER on InfiniBand

=20


Folks,=20
I am aware of a lot of discussions that have been going on recently
regarding iSCSI/iSER operating on InfiniBand Networks.  There has been
some authors that have been working to create some proposed wordage for
the iSER document that would permit support of iSER by an InfiniBand
Network.  Unfortunately, the work to propose some new wordage did not
complete in time to avoid the IETF draft black-out period.  However,
there was a document that was created that explained what was being
discussed and why, and the WEB link to that document (on Julian's Web
site) is included here:=20

http://www.haifa.il.ibm.com/satran/ips/iSER-in-an-IB-network-V9.pdf=20

I encourage you to take a look at this document.  It should also be
noted that because of this work dealing with InfiniBand it was also
possible to define how an SCTP implementation could also be created that
could be conformant to some new proposed wordage for the iSER Draft (to
be released some time after the Black-Out period).=20

Below is the introduction to the paper that was used as a base for some
new proposed wordage.  (Please understand, this is not meant to do
anything other than to start the discussions, I expect there will be a
lot of additional work to clarify issues, and craft the most approprate
wordage for the iSER document.)=20


Introduction



There has been great interest in defining how the iSCSI/iSER (iSCSI
Extensions for RDMA) can be made to operate over an InfiniBand network
instead of a previously defined protocol called SRP (SCSI RDMA
Protocol). The SRP protocol lacked Storage Management and Discovery
processes.  Therefore, great interest in iSCSI/iSER (iSER for short) has
developed since it has the management and discovery structure defined,
built, or being built for iSCSI. This will also consolidate the efforts
of both Ethernet and InfiniBand communities, and reduce the number of
Storage protocols a user has to learn and maintain.=20
 =20
Several things are needed in order for an iSCSI/iSER over an InfiniBand
(iSER/IB) network to operate.  They are:=20

1. Being able to exploit the fact that all the IB Initiator and Target
nodes can also have an IP Transport (IP-over-IB a.k.a. IPoIB) and
associated IP Addresses for standard iSCSI discovery and for address
resolution.=20

2. A way for an iSCSI/iSER on IB Initiator to Login directly to an
InfiniBand attached iSER storage node (without having to connect and
send Login PDUs via TCP/IP).=20

3.  A way for an IB Initiator to choose, if it wishes, directly attached
IB iSER Storage Nodes in preference to an iSER to iSCSI Gateway, or in
preference to using TCP over IPoIB (Internet Protocol over InfiniBand)
connection.=20

4. A way for iSER to operate on InfiniBand Channel Adapters supporting
versions prior to 1.2 that does not support what is called a Zero Based
Tagged Offset (ZBTO) or SendInvSE Messages. (Though the IB specification
has been updated to support the new RDMA features that were introduced
by iWARP, there are likely to be a number of systems that are only using
IB hardware that only meet the pre version 1.2 specifications.  This
would mean that they would not support the features called ZeroBasedTO
(called in InfiniBand ZBVA) or SendInvSE Messages.)=20

Sorry for the lateness of this, --David

The IP Storage (ips) WG meets 1300-1500 on Monday,
November 8 at the IETF meetings in Washington, DC.

Here's a rough agenda:

Administrivia, agenda bashing, draft status review, etc.: 15 min

Any open MIB issues: 15 min

iSER: 1 hour
	(draft-ietf-ips-iser-00.txt)
	iSER = iSCSI Extensions for RDMA

iSER over InfiniBand: 30 min
	No draft available.  This time period is for
	discussion of possible work to support iSCSI
	over InfiniBand via iSER.  The primary purpose
	of this time is a discussion of whether the IETF
	should undertake work in this area, and if so,
	what scope of work is appropriate (e.g., to avoid
	all of us having to become InfiniBand experts).

John and all,

- Agree with and support the basic notion being advanced here -
   it is ideal to have one iSCSI-based transport for RDMA and non-RDMA
   transports, and one iSCSI/iSER-based transport for iWARP and IB
   storage access.

- Suggest that this work should go into separate draft(s) because it
   appears to describe different modes of operation as I see them (more
   on this below), and allows significantly different behaviors from
   the current mandatory behavior required in the iSER draft. E.g.,
	- Support for non-SendInvSE operation.
	- Support for non-zero-based-TO operation.

   Also separate drafts would allow the current iSER/iWARP draft to
   proceed to its milestone dates as planned.

- Assuming that S-RQ is a high-want for iSER targets, one should
   consider if it's indeed worth designing for the old IB ecosystem.
   If we assume SendInvSE & zb-TO support in IB, the iSER/IB semantics
   would be substantially closer to iSER/iWARP semantics during runtime.

- I am not an IB expert, but it seems to me that the draft is
   outlining multiple modes of operation.  Is it fair to say that
   modes b, c and d below could support gateways?
	a) iSCSI/iSER/IB end node talking to iSCSI/iSER/IB end node.
	b) iSCSI-3720 PDUs in IB Send Messages.  This is currently
            proposed only for login phase, but appears to be usable
            even beyond to talk to an iSCSI/iSER gateway.
	c) iSCSI/IB end node talking to iSCSI/TCP end node.  As I
            understand this, this should be iSCSI-3720 over IPoIB with
            no changes to peer iSCSI layers.
	d) iSCSI/iSER/IB end node talking to iSCSI/iSER/iWARP end node.

- Should iSER/RDMA capabilities be reported in discovery?  Should
   IB-support?  How about the iSCSI MIB?

- Finally, the draft makes an interesting observation which was brought
   up earlier as well - devising an integrated approach for iSER/SCTP
   and iSER/IB.  This notion should be considered further.  It might
   also decouple iSER from the current indirect MPA dependency.

Hi Mallikarjun,

The IB Verbs Extensions (IB 1.2) have been defined in groups, where each
group is optional to implement in an IB 1.2 compliant Channel Adapter.
The groups of interest are:
(1) SRQ - Shared Receive Queue
(2) BMM - Base Memory Management - includes Send&Invalidate (and Fast
Register)
(3) ZBVA - Zero Based Regions
An implementation may support any combination of these groups. Therefore
it is very likely that you can find an implementation that supports SRQ, but
does not support ZBVA and Send&Invalidate. Therefore I see a good value in
iSER supporting hybrid modes (especially implementation that have SRQ but
do not support other extensions).

BTW, the reason that the IB Verbs Extensions were defined in optional groups
is because vendors believed that some of the extensions can be implemented
even by the old IB parts through a firmware upgrade or through simple design
changes. Implementation of all the features, usually require a longer
development
cycle, and therefore delays the deployment of products which strongly rely 
on the new features for their wire protocol.

After thinking through the potential problem with overuse of the 
unidirectional NOP-out PDUs, I concluded that the situation where the 
initiator can send twice MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs cannot happen.  Even if 
the initiator abuses the use of the unidirectional NOP-out PDUs, it can 
only send MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs, but not twice the number.  The 
reasoning is as follows: 

For the unidirectional NOP-out, the CmdSN used is the next CmdSN and the 
variable is not advanced when the PDU is sent, and neither is ExpCmdSN. So 
for the target to respond with a PDU where ExpCmdSN is x+1 where x is 
CmdSN of the NOP-out PDU, it must be acknowledging a non-immediate PDU 
also with CmdSN = x.  This must be sent after all the NOP-outs with CmdSN 
= x have been sent, since this non-immediate PDU will advance CmdSN. 
Assuming the target has processed all the NOP-outs with the immediate flag 
set before the non-immediate PDU that follows, the receive buffers should 
be replenished.  So even if the initiator sends a huge number of NOP-outs 
later after receiving a PDU from the target with ExpCmdSN = x+1, it will 
be using CmdSN = x+1 for those NOP-outs and there is no ambiguity on the 
CmdSN that the ExpCmdSN is acknowledging.  So if the target has provisions 
for MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs number of receive buffers available, it 
should be able to handle the unexpected NOP-out PDUs.

For StatSN, the reasoning is similar since StatSN in the NOP-In is 
interpreted as the next StatSN. 

The following is the updated text for the new key, 
MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs.  Note that the default for the key is TBD as 
David Black has suggested in the 61st IETF meeting.  The argument for the 
default being "None" is that it is the preferred value if the 
implementation uses Shared RQ, supports graceful handling, or can 
replenish receive buffers at wire speed.  Please respond if you have a 
suggestion for a different default value.

Mike
--------------  start of new key definition ---------------
Use: LO (leading only), Declarative

Senders: Initiator and Target

Scope: SW (session-wide)

Irrelevant when: RDMAExtensions=No

MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs=<numerical-value-from-0-to-(2**64-1) | None>

Default is TBD

This key is used by the initiator and the target to declare the maximum 
number
of outstanding "unexpected" control-type PDUs that it can receive.  It is
intended to allow the receiving side to determine the amount of buffer
resources needed beyond the normal flow control mechanism available in 
iSCSI.
An initiator or target should select a value such that it would not impose 
an
unnecessary constraint on the iSCSI layer under normal circumstances.  If 
the
sending side fails to adhere to the declared limit as set by the receiving
side, it is up to the receiving side to determine ways of handling the 
overrun,
including dropping the connection.

The control-type PDUs that can be sent by an initiator to a target can be
grouped into the following categories:

1. Regulated:  Control-type PDUs in this category are regulated by the 
iSCSI
   CmdSN window mechanism and the immediate flag is not set.

2. Unregulated but Expected:  Control-type PDUs in this category are not
   regulated by the iSCSI CmdSN window mechanism but are expected by the
   target.

3. Unregulated and Unexpected:  Control-type PDUs in this category are not
   regulated by the iSCSI CmdSN window mechanism and are "unexpected" by 
the
   target.

For the control-type PDUs in the Regulated category, the queuing capacity
required of the iSCSI layer at the target is described in section 3.2.2.1 
of
[RFC3720].  For each of these control-type PDUs sent by the initiator, the
initiator MUST provision for the buffer resources required for the
corresponding control-type PDU to be returned from the target.  The 
following
is a list of the PDUs that can be sent by the initiator and the PDUs that 
are
sent by the target in response:

a. When an initiator sends a SCSI Command PDU, it expects a SCSI Response 
PDU
   from the target.  Alternatively, the target can respond with the Reject 
PDU
   before the task is active.

b. When the initiator sends a Task Management Function Request PDU, it 
expects
   a Task Management Function Response PDU from the target.

c. When the initiator sends a Text Request PDU, it expects a Text Response 
PDU
   from the target.

d. When the initiator sends a Login Request PDU, it expects a Login 
Response
   PDU from the target.

e. When the initiator sends a Logout Request PDU, it expects a Logout 
Response
   PDU from the target.

f. When the initiator sends a NOP-out PDU as a ping request with ITT /=
   0xffffffff and TTT = 0xffffffff, it expects a NOP-in PDU from the 
target
   with the same ITT and TTT as in the ping request.

For the control-type PDUs in the Unregulated but Expected category, the 
amount
of buffering resources required at the target can be predetermined.  The
following is a list of the PDUs in this category:

a. SCSI Data-out PDUs are used by the initiator to send unsolicited data. 
The
   amount of buffer resources required by the target can be determined 
using
   FirstBurstLength.  Note that SCSI Data-out PDUs are not used for 
solicited
   data since the R2T PDU which is used for solicitation is transformed 
into
   RDMA Read operations by the iSER layer at the target.  See section 
7.3.4.

b. A NOP-out PDU with ITT = 0xffffffff and TTT /= 0xffffffff is sent as a 
ping
   response by the initiator to the NOP-in PDU sent as a ping request by 
the
   target.

The number of PDUs in the Unregulated and Unexpected category which can be 
sent
by an initiator is controlled by MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs declared by 
the
target.  After a PDU in this category is sent by the initiator, it is
outstanding until it is retired.  At any time, the number of outstanding 
PDUs
MUST not exceed MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs.  The following is a list of 
the
PDUs in this category and the conditions for retiring the outstanding PDU:

a. For the PDUs listed in the Regulated category but with the immediate 
flag
   set, a PDU is outstanding until the target responds with the
   correspdonding response PDU.

b. SNACK PDUs are not needed in iSER (see section 7.3.11).  A SNACK PDU 
which
   is sent by the initiator anyway is outstanding until the target 
responds
   with a SCSI Response PDU for the referenced command.

c. For a NOP-out PDU with ITT = TTT = 0xffffffff, the PDU is outstanding 
until
   the target responds with a control-type PDU with ExpCmdSN set to at 
least
   x+1 where x is the CmdSN of the NOP-out PDU.

Control-type PDUs that can be sent by a target and are expected by the
initiator are listed in the Regulated category.  For the control-type PDUs
that are unexpected by the initiator, the number that can be sent by a 
target
is controlled by MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs declared by the initiator. 
After
a PDU in this category is sent by a target, it is outstanding until it is
retired.  At any time, the number of outstanding PDUs MUST not exceed
MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs.  The following is a list of the PDUs in this
category and the conditions for retiring the outstanding PDU:

a. For an Asynchronous Message PDU with StatSN = x, the PDU is outstanding
   until the initiator sends a control-type PDU with ExpStatSN set to at 
least
   x+1.

b. For a Reject PDU with StatSN = x which is sent after a task is active, 
the
   PDU is outstanding until the initiator sends a control-type PDU with
   ExpStatSN set to at least x+1.

c. For a NOP-in PDU with ITT = TTT = 0xffffffff, the PDU is outstanding 
until
   the initiator responds with a control-type PDU with ExpStatSN set to at
   least x+1 where x is the StatSN of the NOP-in PDU.

d. For a NOP-in PDU sent as a ping request with ITT = 0xffffffff and TTT 
/=
   0xffffffff, the PDU is outstanding until the initiator sends a NOP-out 
PDU
   with the same ITT and TTT as in the ping request.

Send comments/corrections/etc. to me (and the list if you
think they're important).  This also serves as an announcement
of the sense of the room decisions taken in DC - in the
absence of objection on the list, they are the rough consensus
of the IPS WG.  The most important decision is on the limit
for # of outstanding unexpected PDUs for iSER - see below.

Thanks,

iSER over InfiniBand: [C] 30 min  John Hufferd, IBM
	No draft available.  This time period is for discussion of
	possible work to support iSCSI over InfiniBand via iSER.
	The primary purpose of this time is a discussion of whether
	the IETF should undertake work in this area, and if so, what
	scope of work is appropriate (e.g., to avoid all of us
	having to become InfiniBand experts).

	Proposal is iSER over InfiniBand to enable use of iSCSI

	Terminology: RDMAP should be for the RDDP WG protocol only,
		and not generalized as proposed in the slides.

	Resolution: No real conclusion.  Enabling reuse of IETF
		technology like iSCSI/iSER in other environments is a
		"good thing" in principle.  OTOH, our AD is concerned
		about InfiniBand protocols (e.g., RC) getting out
		onto the Internet and causing problems.  Proponents should
		produce Internet-Draft addressing architecture, intended
		usage, Infiniband to IP/Internet proxy (in particular,
		protocol stack layer diagram) and proposed division of
		work between IETF and IBTA that avoids need for serious
		InfiniBand expertise in IETF (e.g., the work needed
		to cope with old implementations of InfiniBand appears
		to belong in IBTA, not IETF).  Based on WG discussion
		of that draft, the WG co-chairs, and ADs can determine
		appropriate next steps.

Just to make sure I'm understanding things, MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs 
limits the total number of un-ack'd PDUs (NOP-OUTs in this case), not 
the number per any specific CmdSN. Correct?

Why 2**64-1? All the other counting in iSCSI uses 32-bit ints. 
Including the numbers we want to use for status acknowledgement. Thus I 
really don't see how we could need more than 2**32.

Take care,

William,

You wrote "Just to make sure I'm understanding things, 
MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs limits the total number of un-ack'd PDUs 
(NOP-OUTs in this case), not the number per any specific CmdSN. Correct?"

For the target, MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs limits the unregulated and 
unexpected PDUs from the initiator.  This is described in the Unregulated 
and Unexpected Category in the added text.  It includes PDUs with the 
immediate flag set and the SNACK PDU.  A unidirectional NOP-out PDU (where 
ITT = TTT = 0xffffffff) has the immediate flag set and so is included with 
the PDUs with the immediate flag set.  The limit is not restricted to a 
specific CmdSN.

For the initiator, MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs limits all PDUs originated 
from the target which are not sent as a response to a request from the 
initiator.  They do not carry CmdSN by definition.

You wrote "Why 2**64-1? All the other counting in iSCSI uses 32-bit ints.
Including the numbers we want to use for status acknowledgement. Thus I
really don't see how we could need more than 2**32."

I just want to pick a large number for the upper limit, and I can live 
with 32 bits.  I can change the spec to reflect 32 bits if there are no 
objections.

Just to make sure I'm understanding things, MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs
limits the total number of un-ack'd PDUs (NOP-OUTs in this case), not
the number per any specific CmdSN. Correct?

Why 2**64-1? All the other counting in iSCSI uses 32-bit ints.
Including the numbers we want to use for status acknowledgement. Thus I
really don't see how we could need more than 2**32.

Take care,

Eliminating the TCP dependencies in iSER would be a good idea.

Once a connection between two RDMA Endpoints is established,
iSER can be defined as a series of RDMA Messages.  As such
they are dependent only on RDMAP, and not on the underlying
LLP. Adapting to other IP based transports would be easy,
such as SCTP, and should be supported.  It also enables
non-IP transports, which is something that I do not believe
anyone would object to, especially if a clarifying draft
establishes how to do iSER over generic RDMA services
without having to specify the mapping of generic RDMA
services to any specific non-IP transport.

The only missing service required is support of an initial
message before endpoints are selected (the equivalent of the
MPA Request and Reply messages and their private data).

The key requirement is specifying that the private data
contain enough information to enable RDMA endpoints to
be selected.  After that remaining iSCSI negotiations
can be completed using Send messages.

Private data exchange prior to pairing RDMA endpoints
is already supported for both MPA/TCP and SCTP.  The
essential similarity is already documented in the RDDP
applicability draft.

If a "non-streaming mode" method of establishing an
iSCSI connection is defined that is compatible with
the existing private data exchange followed by Send
messages for the remaining negotiations it will enable
other IP transports, such as SCTP, and do so in a manner
that is fully compatible with existing RDMA APIs such
as DAPL and IT-API.

It would also make it easy to port "non-TCP-dependent"
iSER to non-IP transports, should anyone wish to do
that outside the scope of the IETF.

Eliminating iSERs dependency on a single RDMA transport
is something that should be done anyway.  The fact that
doing so would be useful for InfiniBand ports is certainly
not a reason to avoid doing something that should have
been done in the first place.

Mike,

I think there is a problem with the assumption that advance of ExpCmdSN =
can be used to retire outstanding unexpected PDUs. The problem occurs =
when there are multiple connections in a session.

Description of how ExpCmdSN retires outstanding unexpected PDUs from =
Mike Ko's message:
"For the unidirectional NOP-out, the CmdSN used is the next CmdSN and =
the=20
variable is not advanced when the PDU is sent, and neither is ExpCmdSN. =
So=20
for the target to respond with a PDU where ExpCmdSN is x+1 where x is=20
CmdSN of the NOP-out PDU, it must be acknowledging a non-immediate PDU=20
also with CmdSN =3D x.  This must be sent after all the NOP-outs with =
CmdSN=20
=3D x have been sent, since this non-immediate PDU will advance CmdSN.=20
Assuming the target has processed all the NOP-outs with the immediate =
flag=20
set before the non-immediate PDU that follows, the receive buffers =
should=20
be replenished.  So even if the initiator sends a huge number of =
NOP-outs=20
later after receiving a PDU from the target with ExpCmdSN =3D x+1, it =
will=20
be using CmdSN =3D x+1 for those NOP-outs and there is no ambiguity on =
the=20
CmdSN that the ExpCmdSN is acknowledging.  So if the target has =
provisions=20
for MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs number of receive buffers available, it=20
should be able to handle the unexpected NOP-out PDUs."

Let's look at a session with two connections. Call the connections c1 =
and c2.

The following are sent from iSCSI to the two connections (cmd(n) =
indicates a non-immediate command with CmdSN n. imm(n) indicates an =
immediate command carrying CmdSN n):

time    c1            c2  =20
 |    cmd(x-1)
 |    imm(x)
 V    imm(x)
      imm(x)
                    cmd(x)

Though all the imm(x) commands are sent by iSCSI before cmd(x), they may =
arrive at the target in a different order:
time    c1            c2  =20
 |    cmd(x-1)
 |    imm(x)
 V                  cmd(x)
      imm(x)
      imm(x)

This could happen for many reasons. They could have been delayed by =
congestion or a need to retransmit due to a lost packet. Perhaps the =
initiator's RNIC on c1 received a large RDMA  read request before it =
received some of the commands and is completing the transmission of the =
RDMA read response before it transmits them.

When the target receives cmd(x) on c2, it will advance ExpCmdSN and it =
has no way to know that there are outstanding unexpected PDUs. One can =
really only retire outstanding unexpected PDUs when ExpCmdSN is advanced =
past a CmdSN that was sent after them on the same connection - something =
that adds additional complexity to this process.

          =20
 =20

Pat,

Note that for immediate PDUs sent by the initiator requiring a response 
from the target, which include all the PDUs in the regulated category 
except that the immediate flags are set, the PDUs are retired (not 
outstanding) when the target responds with the corresponding response PDU. 
 E.g., a Text Request PDU with the immediate flag set is not retired until 
the target responds with a Text Response PDU.  So the only PDU with the 
immediate flag set that can be sent by the initiator that does not require 
a response from the target is the NOP-out PDU with ITT = TTT = 0xffffffff. 
 This is the PDU which will be retired when the target responds with a PDU 
where ExpCmdSN = x+1 where x is the CmdSN of the NOP-out PDU.  The iSCSI 
spec said that "A NOP-Out may also be used to confirm a changed ExpStatSN 
if another PDU will not be available for a long time."  So for the 
initiator to send multiple unidirectional NOP-outs does not quite meet the 
spirit as intended in the iSCSI spec.  However, the iSCSI spec does not 
explicitly prohibit the behavior.

But your point is well taken that for multiple connections, the problem 
that I described in the 61st IETF meeting still exists.  We have several 
alternatives:

1. Require that this NOP-out PDU is retired only when the target responds 
with ExpCmdSN = x+1 or larger on the same connection.

2. Add a cautionary note to warn against the behavior of sending 
undirectional NOP-out floods.

3. Suggest that undirectional NOP-outs not be used to avoid the ambiguity. 
 Note that in the iSER spec, the recommended use for NOP-out is the 
bidirectional type.  See section 7.3.5 and 7.3.6.

I favor option 1, and suggesting option 3 at the same time for the 
implementation to avoid the complexity.

Subject:        RE: [Ips] Updated text for MaxOutstandingUnexpectedPDUs 
for iSER



Mike,

I think there is a problem with the assumption that advance of ExpCmdSN 
can be used to retire outstanding unexpected PDUs. The problem occurs when 
there are multiple connections in a session.

Description of how ExpCmdSN retires outstanding unexpected PDUs from Mike 
Ko's message:
"For the unidirectional NOP-out, the CmdSN used is the next CmdSN and the
variable is not advanced when the PDU is sent, and neither is ExpCmdSN. So
for the target to respond with a PDU where ExpCmdSN is x+1 where x is
CmdSN of the NOP-out PDU, it must be acknowledging a non-immediate PDU
also with CmdSN = x.  This must be sent after all the NOP-outs with CmdSN
= x have been sent, since this non-immediate PDU will advance CmdSN.
Assuming the target has processed all the NOP-outs with the immediate flag
set before the non-immediate PDU that follows, the receive buffers should
be replenished.  So even if the initiator sends a huge number of NOP-outs
later after receiving a PDU from the target with ExpCmdSN = x+1, it will
be using CmdSN = x+1 for those NOP-outs and there is no ambiguity on the
CmdSN that the ExpCmdSN is acknowledging.  So if the target has provisions
for MaxOutstandUnexpectedPDUs number of receive buffers available, it
should be able to handle the unexpected NOP-out PDUs."

Let's look at a session with two connections. Call the connections c1 and 
c2.

The following are sent from iSCSI to the two connections (cmd(n) indicates 
a non-immediate command with CmdSN n. imm(n) indicates an immediate 
command carrying CmdSN n):

time    c1            c2
|    cmd(x-1)
|    imm(x)
V    imm(x)
imm(x)
cmd(x)

Though all the imm(x) commands are sent by iSCSI before cmd(x), they may 
arrive at the target in a different order:
time    c1            c2
|    cmd(x-1)
|    imm(x)
V                  cmd(x)
imm(x)
imm(x)

This could happen for many reasons. They could have been delayed by 
congestion or a need to retransmit due to a lost packet. Perhaps the 
initiator's RNIC on c1 received a large RDMA  read request before it 
received some of the commands and is completing the transmission of the 
RDMA read response before it transmits them.

When the target receives cmd(x) on c2, it will advance ExpCmdSN and it has 
no way to know that there are outstanding unexpected PDUs. One can really 
only retire outstanding unexpected PDUs when ExpCmdSN is advanced past a 
CmdSN that was sent after them on the same connection - something that 
adds additional complexity to this process.

Object Storage uses both. It is likely that Intel's initiator uses both.
Mike Mesnier may have some details about how to get to it..
Kalman may know about "variants" of the source-forge initiator that 
support them too.

Hi Eddy,

=20

The code on source forge
(http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/intel-iscsi) supports both in the
initiator and target, but the scsi driver only uses extended CDBs (I
believe you'll need to make some changes to the linux scsi stack to get
bi-directional transfers working).

I'm not familiar with how other OSs handle this, but I believe all of 
the *BSDs support (privileged) programs sending SCSI commands directly 
to a device. So you could just write a program to make an initiator 
send such commands.

Take care,

Bill

Elsewhere I've seen SCSI pass thru facilities commonly require root 
privilege, limit CDB's to 16 or to 12 bytes max, and pass data thru 
only in or only out ... and the Mac OS X derivative of BSD requires PDT 
= x05 = DVD/ CD and rewritability for SCSI pass thru ... but maybe life 
in many BSD is better, I don't know.

	We encountered a target that always returns a MaxCmdSn = 0 during
a discovery session.  Is CmdSn windowing not required during discovery
sessions when sending Text Requests?  I haven't found anything in the
RFC to suggest cmdsn is only for discovery sessions.

Thanks for any pointers.

Sounds like a buggy target. I am aware of nothing in the spec that 
limits command windowing to only non-discovery sessions.

Take care,

Having seen no comments, these are the final minutes that will be
sent to the secretariat for the proceedings, and the decisions

The iSER draft authors should take this as a cue to start

Hi all:
 I have developed iSCSI target on MAC OSx.I am testing
with Microsoft Initiator.When we write files below
64KB we are able to read them correctly.But if files
are above this size our data get corrupted.We have
also found that with one scsi write command initiator
sends maximum 64KB of data so we get multiple writes.
For testing; We are creating text file in wordpad and
reading it back.What could be the problem?
Pl. help
thanks
ulka

Hi all:
i am testing my iscsi target with microsoft initiator
.When i do data transfer of large files(say above 2MB)
microsoft initiator sends opcode 0x33 and sometimes
0x49.What is meaning of these opcodes?
Does any one know?
Pl reply as i am badly stuck up here.
thanks
ulka

Sir,
	Section 12.9 says about the TargetPortalGroupTag as: "The iSCSI target
returns this key to the initiator in the Login Response PDU to the first
Login Request PDU that has the C bit set to 0."

	But in the case of UNH-iSCSI Target this is not the behavior. i.e., it will
not return the TargetPortalGroupTag key-value pair.(The same information
will be provided in response to the SendTargets as TargetAddress key-value
pair during the discovery session).
	But from Microsoft Initiator even if we do Static Target Configuration and
do the login, the MS Initiator quietly accepts the response without
TargetPortalGroupTag and proceeds to the next stage.

	Currently our implementation is not supporting Discovery session and we are
expecting the TargetPortalGroupTag to be returned with the First Login
response PDU. What should we do? shall we accept the response and proceed to
the next stage or drop the session (current implementation).

	Thanks in advance,

with regards,
Manohar S.

The UNH-iSCSI Target can be configured to either send or not send the
TargetPortalGroupTag key-value pair.  You must not have it configured
correctly.  I suggest we take this thread off the reflector to discuss
the details, since this has nothing to do with the iSCSI standard.

Ulka,

This is really not an appropriate forum for debugging
your target implementation.  Please work directly with
Microsoft for support in using their iSCSI initiator.

Thanks,

Am I correct in thinking that MaxBurstLength governs the TOTAL amount
of solicited data sent across the 'entire sequence' of Data-in/Data-out
PDU's or is it the maximum length of just one Data-in/Data-out PDU?

12.13.  MaxBurstLength

The initiator and target negotiate maximum SCSI data payload in bytes
in a Data-In or a solicited Data-Out iSCSI sequence.  A sequence
consists of one or more consecutive Data-In or Data-Out PDUs that end
with a Data-In or Data-Out PDU with the F bit set to one.

Thanks in advance,
Bill

Hello,

I am wondering if the target must increase the connection StatSN after
sending a reject PDU.

In the RFC, it is stated

10.17.3 StatSN, ExpCmdSN and MaxCmdSN 
These fields carry their usual values and are not related to the
rejected command

It is not clear to me if StatSN must be incremented after sending the
PDU or not. I would say no, but I would like a confirmation.

Thank you,

Gwendal.

The final RFC 3720 10.17.3 (as opposed to draft20) states pretty clearly
"StatSN is advanced after a Reject."

I believe the full text says,
>>>
10.17.3.  StatSN, ExpCmdSN and MaxCmdSN

   These fields carry their usual values and are not related to the
   rejected command. StatSN is advanced after a Reject.
<<<

Hope this helps,
--buck

Hello,

I am wondering if the target must increase the connection StatSN after
sending a reject PDU.

In the RFC, it is stated

10.17.3 StatSN, ExpCmdSN and MaxCmdSN=20
These fields carry their usual values and are not related to the
rejected command

It is not clear to me if StatSN must be incremented after sending the
PDU or not. I would say no, but I would like a confirmation.

Thank you,
