7、Reports are produced in some cases to disseminate thetechnical and logical concepts reflected in standards already published or underdevelopment. In other cases, they derive from studies in areas where it is foundpremature to develop a standard due to a still changing technology, orinappropriate to

8、develop a rigorous standard due to the existence of a number ofviable options, the choice of which depends on the users particular requirements.These Technical Reports, thus, provide guidelines, the use of which can result ingreater consistency and coherence of information processing systems.When th

27、m “may” is used to indicate flexibility of choice with no implied preference; equivalent to “may or may not”. The fields or control bits that are not applicable shall be set as required by the defining standard or technical report. If a field or a control bit in a frame is specified as not meaningfu

28、l, the entity that receives the frame shall not check that field or control bit. In several tables within this document, there is a column on the right side of the table labeled “Notes”. These notes are NORMATIVE and shall be considered requirements of this document. In the event of conflict between

29、 the text, tables, and figures in this document, the following precedence shall be used: tables (highest), text and figures (lowest). 3.3.2 Binary notation Binary notation may be used to represent some fields. Single bit fields are represented using the binary values 0 and 1. For multiple bit fields

30、, the binary value is enclosed in single quotation marks followed by the letter b. For example, a four-byte field containing a binary value may be represented as 00000000 11111111 10011000 11111010b. 3.3.3 Hexadecimal notation Hexadecimal notation may be used to represent some fields. When this is d

For example, a four-byte field containing a binary value of 00000000 11111111 10011000 11111010b is shown in hexadecimal format as hex 00 FF 98 FA. 4 INCITS TR-40-2005 3.4 Abbreviations and acronyms Abbreviations and

Please

34、read these definitions carefully! Required: If a feature or parameter value is Required, it means that it shall be used between compliant implementations. Compliant implementations are required to implement the feature. Interoperability is not guaranteed if Required features are not implemented. Eac

35、h Required feature will include a note that describes the condition(s) in which the feature shall be used. Invocable: If a feature or parameter value is Invocable, it means that it may be used between compliant implementations. Compliant implementations are required to implement the feature. Invocab

36、le is different from Required in that an implementation may use the feature if needed, but is not required to use it. No discovery process is necessary prior to use of an Invocable feature. Allowed: If a feature or parameter value is Allowed, it means that it may be used between compliant implementa

37、tions. Compliant implementations are not required to implement the feature. Typically, the potential user of an Allowed feature may determine if an implementation supports it via an Invocable discovery process. Prohibited: If a feature is Prohibited, it means that it shall not be used between compli

38、ant implemen-tations. This document does not Prohibit the implementation of features, only their use between compliant implementations. Interoperability is not guaranteed if Prohibited features are used. Table 1 summarizes the above definitions. Table 1 Summary of Implementation and Use of Features

39、Term Implementation Use Required Shall Shall Invocable Shall May Allowed May May Prohibited May Shall Not The tables in the following clauses list features described in the various Fibre Channel standards and technical reports. These tables indicate whether the features are Required, Prohibited, Inv

40、ocable, or Allowed for compliance with this report; or whether a parameter is Required to be a particular value for compliance with this report. Features or parameters that are not listed do not affect the interoperability of FC-AE-RDMA devices. The following legend is used for table entries in thes

41、e clauses: R Required I Invocable A Allowed P Prohibited n the parameter shall be set to this value X this parameter has no required value; any value is Allowed - this parameter or feature is not meaningful 6 INCITS TR-40-2005 4. FC-AE-RDMA Protocol 4.1 Introduction to FC-AE-RDMA This technical repo

42、rt defines an Upper Level Protocol (ULP), FC-AE-RDMA. FC-AE-RDMA is based on Fibre Channel Protocol for SCSI (FCP) 2. This clause lists features described in the FCP standard and indicates whether the features are Required, Prohibited, Allowed, or Invocable in FC-AE-RDMA. This clause also defines so

43、me new features for FC-AE-RDMA that are not defined in FCP. FC-AE-RDMA follows the FCP standard in its definition of the services necessary to support low-latency, low overhead communication between elements of a mission-critical avionics system. The key feature of FC-AE-RDMA is that it allows an In

44、itiator to read data from or write data to a remote Target memory in peer-to-peer mode (similar to SCSI-3 processor device type) with lower latency. All FC-AE-RDMA compliant devices shall be capable of operating as a Initiator and a Target. NOTE 1 There is another protocol similar in operation to FC

45、-AE-RDMA. It is the Fibre Channel Lightweight Protocol described in clause 4.5 of FC-AE 5. While they are similar, there are sufficient differences to warrant their own protocols, especially in their use of the FCP_XFER_RDY IU and the Command Descriptor Block. 4.2 Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA)

46、using FCP 4.2.1 FC-AE-RDMA Modifications to FCP FC-AE-RDMA places certain restrictions on FCP in order to improve support for low latency, real-time applications. For example, the FCP_XFER_RDY IU is not used and data immediately follows the FCP_CMND IU. In FC-AE-RDMA, a Target shall predefine one or

47、 more regions of its local memory for RDMA use. An Initiator then reads or writes data directly into the Target memory. The contents of the FCP_CMND IU are not redefined, but usage of the Parameter field of the header is modified. The Parameter field in the FCP_CMND IU is used to indicate that the t

48、ransfer is FC-AE-RDMA and to specify the base address that the Target uses as a starting point for the read or write operation. NOTE 2 This protocol does not prohibit a target memory region from overlapping with any other target memory region. A system designer may choose to restrict memory region u

49、sage depending on the application. 4.2.2 Logical Unit Logical Units may be used to identify separate memory regions within a Target. The FCP_LUN field of the FCP_CMND IU is used to identify a specific Logical Unit for each Message. All Targets shall provide at least one RDMA memory region assigned to Logical Unit 0 (FCP_LUN = 0). Targets may optionally define additional memory regions assigned to Logical Units with FCP_LUN values of 1-255. The additional LUNs do not have to be contiguous. These Logical Units are designated in the LUN/Targ
