Remote Direct Data Placement WG (rddp) Wednesday, November 20 at 1530-1730 =================================== CHAIR: David Black rddp is now an IETF Working Group; this is its second official meeting. This WG was the result of the ROI BOFs in Salt Lake City and Minneapolis. For more information, please refer to the rddp charter at: http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/rddp-charter.html NOTE: There are no official WG drafts at the present. The author(s) of each draft with agenda time allocated to it request(s) that the rddp WG adopt each draft as an official WG work item. AGENDA: - Agenda Bashing and Administrivia (5 min) - Blue Sheets - NOTE WELL - WG goals and work items - Problem Statement and Architecture (20 min) draft-romanow-rdma-over-ip-problem-statement-01.txt draft-bailey-roi-ddp-rdma-arch-01.txt These drafts have been revised from the versions used at the previous ROI BOFs to match the work of the rddp WG. - DDP/RDMAP Overview & Goals (10 min) The DDP and RDMAP drafts were designed in tandem. This is an overview of what they were intended to achieve and how the functionality is divided between them. - DDP (20 min) (draft-shah-iwarp-ddp-01.txt) - RDMAP (20 min) (draft-recio-iwarp-rdma-01.txt) - SCTP mapping (10 min) (draft-stewart-rddp-sctp-00.txt) - TCP mapping (30 min) (draft-williams-ift-iwarp-00.txt) NOTE: Attendees should also read the following two drafts as background for the meeting, although no agenda time is allocated to them: (1) draft-black-rdma-concerns-00.txt Describes concerns that rddp work needs to address. (2) draft-culley-iwarp-mpa-01.txt An alternative approach to the williams-ift draft that requires TCP modifications and hence cannot be considered by the rddp WG. Some discussion of this draft and the williams-ift draft is anticipated in TSVWG, which meets before RDDP.
