[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] iSCSI : digest error handling violates EMDP/InDataOrder
Where :
=======
Section 6.2 (pg 80). Digest Errors
-----------------------------------
"If the error is a Data-Digest-Error in a Data-PDU, the target MUST
either request retransmission with a R2T or answer with a Reject iSCSI
PDU and abort the task."
Problem :
---------
On a Data digest error detected by a target, it MUST NOT request
re-transmission of the data PDU thru an R2T if the session login key
InDataOrder is set to yes. The current rev 05 draft violates
InDataOrder/EMDP settings by allowing a re-transmission of R2T by
target.
Scenario :
==========
initiator target
--------- ------
EMDP=0
InDataOrder=YES
(exp_off=0)
offset=0,len=64k <------ R2T
--------> data PDUs
(exp_off = 64K)
data digest error results in
an 8K PDU being dropped at offset 24K.
offset=24K,len=8K <------ R2T for missing PDU.
exp_off != offset
