    Re: iSCSI: FirstBurstSize and unsolicited data



    Hi,
     
    I have been following the discussion on this thread.
     
    I still have certain doubts regarding the
    conditions I specified in my original mail.
     
    The conditions are :
     
    FirstBurstSize = 64KB
    EDTL = 100KB ( EDTL > FirstBurstSize)
    MaxRecvDataSegmentLength = 8KB
    ImmediateData = Yes
    InitialR2T = Yes
     
    In the above case the initiator cannot send unsolicited Data-out PDUs.
    Here unsolicited data(ImmediateData) < FirstBurstSize.
     
    Will the target report any error in this case?
     
    The modified text for Section 9.4.6.2 only refers to the cases
    where unsolicited Data-outs can be sent.
     
    Please clarify if I am missing something very obvious.
     
     
    Thanks,

    Eddy,

    I assume you meant EDTL not DSL and then the answer is yes and I again forgot to subtract  the immediate. A better formulation would be:

    The target reports the "Incorrect amount of data" condition if dur-ing data output the total data length to output is greater than First-BurstSize and the initiator sent unsolicited non-immediate data but the total amount of unsolicited data is different than FirstBurst-Size. The target reports the same error when the amount of data sent as a reply to an R2T does not match the amount requested.

    Isn't this saying that if DSL > FirstBurstSize, it would be incorrect to send non-immediate unsolicited which is not equal to FirstBurstSize?
     
    The target reports the "Incorrect amount of data" condition if dur-ing data output the total data length to output is greater than First-BurstSize, but the initiator sent an amount different than FirstBurstSize of unsolicited non-immediate data or the amount of data sent as a reply to an R2T does not match the amount requested.
