    iSCSI: ImmediateData negotiation



    I have a question on how a target should respond to
    "ImmediateData=Yes" from an initiator if the target
    doesn't support ImmediateData.  Here are two scenarios:
    
    Scenario 1:
    /* The target here only considers the value offered by the
     * initiator, if the value is not acceptable, it simply 
     * rejects it rather than suggesting another value.
     */
    I->T: ImmediateData=Yes
    T->I: ImmediateData=Reject
    I->T: ImmediateData=No  /* Should initiator offer No? */
    T->I: ImmediateData=No
    
    Scenario 2:
    /* The target here simply returns a value it supports 
     * without rejecting the value offered by the initiator.
     */
    I->T: ImmediateData=Yes
    T->I: ImmediateData=No
    I->T: ImmediateData=No  /* Should initiator reply No? */
    T->I: ImmediateData=No
    
    Based on section 4.2 of draft 12, I believe scenario 1 is correct, right?
    
    In addition, does the Result function of a text parameter (AND or OR) make a
    difference here?
    
    Thanks,
    Dennis
