1. Introduction
The RPC-over-RDMA version 1 transport protocol [RFC8166] enables
payload data transfer using Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) for
upper-layer protocols based on Remote Procedure Calls (RPC)
[RFC5531]. The terms "Remote Direct Memory Access" (RDMA) and
"Direct Data Placement" (DDP) are introduced in [RFC5040].
The two most immediate shortcomings of RPC-over-RDMA version 1 are:
o Setting up an RDMA data transfer (via RDMA Read or Write) can be
costly. The small default size of messages transmitted using RDMA
Send forces the use of RDMA Read or Write operations even for
relatively small messages and data payloads.
The original specification of RPC-over-RDMA version 1 provided an
out-of-band protocol for passing inline threshold values between
connected peers [RFC5666]. However, [RFC8166] eliminated support
for this protocol making it unavailable for this purpose.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
o Unlike most other contemporary RDMA-enabled storage protocols,
there is no facility in RPC-over-RDMA version 1 that enables the
use of remote invalidation [RFC5042].
Each RPC-over-RDMA version 1 transport header follows the External
Data Representation (XDR) [RFC4506] definition specified in
[RFC8166]. However, RPC-over-RDMA version 1 has no means of
extending this definition in such a way that interoperability with
existing implementations is preserved. As a result, an out-of-band
mechanism is needed to help relieve these constraints for existing
RPC-over-RDMA version 1 implementations.
This document specifies a simple, non-XDR-based message format
designed to be passed between RPC-over-RDMA version 1 peers at the
time each RDMA transport connection is first established. The
mechanism assumes that the underlying RDMA transport has a private
data field that is passed between peers at connection time, such as
is present in the iWARP protocol (described in Section 7.1 of
[RFC5044]) or the InfiniBand Connection Manager [IBA].
To enable current RPC-over-RDMA version 1 implementations to
interoperate with implementations that support the private message
format described in this document, implementation of the private data
message is OPTIONAL. When the private data message has been
successfully exchanged, peers may choose to perform extended RDMA
semantics. However, the private message format does not alter the
XDR definition specified in [RFC8166].
The message format is intended to be further extensible within the
normal scope of such IETF work (see Section 6 for further details).
Section 8 of this document defines an IANA registry for this purpose.
In addition, interoperation between implementations of RPC-over-RDMA
version 1 that present this message format to peers and those that do
not recognize this message format is guaranteed.
2. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.

Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
3.1. Inline Threshold Size
Section 3.3.2 of [RFC8166] defines the term "inline threshold." An
inline threshold is the maximum number of bytes that can be
transmitted using one RDMA Send and one RDMA Receive. There are a
pair of inline thresholds for a connection: a client-to-server
threshold and a server-to-client threshold.
If an incoming RDMA message exceeds the size of a receiver's inline
threshold, the receive operation fails and the RDMA provider
typically terminates the connection. To convey an RPC message larger
than the receiver's inline threshold without risking receive failure,
a sender must use explicit RDMA data transfer operations, which are
more expensive than an RDMA Send. See Sections 3.3 and 3.5 of
[RFC8166] for a complete discussion.
The default value of inline thresholds for RPC-over-RDMA version 1
connections is 1024 bytes (as defined in Section 3.3.3 of [RFC8166]).
This value is adequate for nearly all NFS version 3 procedures.
NFS version 4 COMPOUND operations [RFC7530] are larger on average
than NFS version 3 procedures [RFC1813], forcing clients to use
explicit RDMA operations for frequently-issued requests such as
LOOKUP and GETATTR. The use of RPCSEC_GSS security also increases
the average size of RPC messages, due to the larger size of
RPCSEC_GSS credential material included in RPC headers [RFC7861].
If a sender and receiver could somehow agree on larger inline
thresholds, frequently-used RPC transactions avoid the cost of
explicit RDMA operations.
3.2. Remote Invalidation
After an RDMA data transfer operation completes, an RDMA consumer can
request that its peer's RDMA network interface card (RNIC) invalidate
the Steering Tag (STag) associated with the data transfer [RFC5042].
An RDMA consumer requests remote invalidation by posting an RDMA Send
With Invalidate Work Request in place of an RDMA Send Work Request.
Each RDMA Send With Invalidate carries one STag to invalidate. The
receiver of an RDMA Send With Invalidate performs the requested
invalidation and then reports that invalidation as part of the
completion of a waiting Receive Work Request.
If both peers support remote invalidation, an RPC-over-RDMA responder
might use remote invalidation when replying to an RPC request that
provided chunks. Because one of the chunks has already been
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
invalidated, finalizing the results of the RPC is made simpler and
faster.
However, there are some important caveats which contraindicate the
blanket use of remote invalidation:
o Remote invalidation is not supported by all RNICs.
o Not all RPC-over-RDMA responder implementations can generate RDMA
Send With Invalidate Work Requests.
o Not all RPC-over-RDMA requester implementations can recognize when
remote invalidation has occurred.
o On one connection in different RPC-over-RDMA transactions, or in a
single RPC-over-RDMA transaction, an RPC-over-RDMA requester can
expose a mixture of STags that may be invalidated remotely and
some that must not be. No indication is provided at the RDMA
layer as to which is which.
A responder therefore must not employ remote invalidation unless it
is aware of support for it in its own RDMA stack, and on the
requester. And, without altering the XDR structure of RPC-over-RDMA
version 1 messages, it is not possible to support remote invalidation
with requesters that mix STags that may and must not be invalidated
remotely in a single RPC or on the same connection.
There are some NFS/RDMA client implementations whose STags are always
safe to invalidate remotely. For such clients, indicating to the
responder that remote invalidation is always safe can enable such
invalidation without the need for additional protocol elements to be
defined.
4. Private Data Message Format
With an InfiniBand lower layer, for example, RDMA connection setup
uses a Connection Manager when establishing a Reliable Connection
[IBA]. When an RPC-over-RDMA version 1 transport connection is
established, the client (which actively establishes connections) and
the server (which passively accepts connections) populate the CM
Private Data field exchanged as part of CM connection establishment.
The transport properties exchanged via this mechanism are fixed for
the life of the connection. Each new connection presents an
opportunity for a fresh exchange. An implementation of the extension
described in this document MUST be prepared for the settings to
change upon a reconnection.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
For RPC-over-RDMA version 1, the CM Private Data field is formatted
as described in the following subsection. RPC clients and servers
use the same format. If the capacity of the Private Data field is
too small to contain this message format or the underlying RDMA
transport is not managed by a Connection Manager, the CM Private Data
field cannot be used on behalf of RPC-over-RDMA version 1.
The first 8 octets of the CM Private Data field is to be formatted as
follows:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Format Identifier |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Version | Reserved |R| Send Size | Receive Size |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Format Identifier: This field contains a fixed 32-bit value that
identifies the content of the Private Data field as an RPC-over-
RDMA version 1 CM Private Data message. In RPC-over-RDMA version
1 Private Data, the value of this field is always 0xf6ab0e18, in
network byte order. The use of this field is further expanded
upon in Section 5.2.
Version: This 8-bit field contains a message format version number.
The value "1" in this field indicates that exactly eight octets
are present, that they appear in the order described in this
section, and that each has the meaning defined in this section.
Further considerations about the use of this field are discussed
in Section 6.
Reserved: This 7-bit field is unused. Senders MUST set these bits
to zero and receivers MUST ignore their value.
R: This 1-bit field indicates that the sender supports remote
invalidation. The field is set and interpreted as described in
Section 4.1.
Send Size: This 8-bit field contains an encoded value corresponding
to the maximum number of bytes this peer is prepared to transmit
in a single RDMA Send on this connection. The value is encoded as
described in Section 4.2.
Receive Size: This 8-bit field contains an encoded value
corresponding to the maximum number of bytes this peer is prepared
to receive with a single RDMA Receive on this connection. The
value is encoded as described in Section 4.2.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
4.1. Using the R Field
The R field indicates limited support for remote invalidate as
described in Section 3.2. When both connection peers have set this
bit flag in their CM Private Data, the responder MAY use RDMA Send
With Invalidate when transmitting RPC Replies. Each RDMA Send With
Invalidate MUST invalidate an STag associated only with the XID in
the rdma_xid field of the RPC-over-RDMA Transport Header it carries.
When either peer on a connection clears this flag, the responder MUST
use only RDMA Send when transmitting RPC Replies.
4.2. Send and Receive Size Values
Inline threshold sizes from 1024 to 262144 octets can be represented
in the Send Size and Receive Size fields. The inline threshold
values provide a pair of 1024-octet-aligned maximum message lengths
that guarantee Send and Receive operations do not fail due to length
errors.
The minimum inline threshold for RPC-over-RDMA version 1 is 1024
octets (see Section 3.3.3 of [RFC8166]). The values in the Send Size
and Receive Size fields represent the unsigned number of additional
kilo-octets of length beyond the first 1024 octets. Thus, a sender
computes the encoded value by dividing its actual buffer size, in
octets, by 1024 and subtracting one from the result. A receiver
decodes an incoming Size value by performing the inverse set of
operations: it adds one to the encoded value and then multiplies that
result by 1024.
The client uses the smaller of its own send size and the server's
reported receive size as the client-to-server inline threshold. The
server uses the smaller of its own send size and the clients's
reported receive size as the server-to-client inline threshold.
5. Interoperability Considerations
The extension described in this document is designed to allow RPC-
over-RDMA version implementations that use CM Private Data to
interoperate fully with RPC-over-RDMA version 1 implementations that
do not exchange this information. Implementations that use this
extension must also interoperate fully with RDMA implementations that
use CM Private Data for other purposes. Realizing these goals
requires that implementations of this extension follow the practices
described in the rest of this section.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
5.1. Interoperability with RPC-over-RDMA Version 1 Implementations
When a peer does not receive a CM Private Data message which conforms
to Section 4, it needs to act as if the remote peer supports only the
default RPC-over-RDMA version 1 settings, as defined in [RFC8166].
In other words, the peer MUST behave as if a Private Data message was
received in which bit 15 of the Flags field is zero, and both Size
fields contain the value zero.
5.2. Interoperability Amongst RDMA Transports
The Format Identifier field defined in Section 4 is provided to
enable implementations to distinguish RPC-over-RDMA version 1 Private
Data from private data inserted at other layers, such as the private
data inserted by the iWARP MPAv2 enhancement described in [RFC6581].
As part of connection establishment, the received private data buffer
is searched for the Format Identifier word. The offset of the Format
Identifier is not restricted to any alignment. If the RPC-over-RDMA
version 1 CM Private Data Format Identifier is not present, an RPC-
over-RDMA version 1 receiver MUST behave as if no RPC-over-RDMA
version 1 CM Private Data has been provided.
Once the RPC-over-RDMA version 1 CM Private Data Format Identifier is
found, the receiver parses the subsequent octets as RPC-over-RDMA
version 1 CM Private Data. As additional assurance that the private
data content is valid RPC-over-RDMA version 1 CM Private Data, the
receiver should check that the format version number field contains a
valid and recognized version number and the size of the private data
does not overrun the length of the buffer.
6. Updating the Message Format
Although the message format described in this document provides the
ability for the client and server to exchange particular information
about the local RPC-over-RDMA implementation, it is possible that
there will be a future need to exchange additional properties. This
would make it necessary to extend or otherwise modify the format
described in this document.
Any modification faces the problem of interoperating properly with
implementations of RPC-over-RDMA version 1 that are unaware of the
existence of the new format. These include implementations that that
do not recognize the exchange of CM Private Data as well as those
that recognize only the format described in this document.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
Given the message format described in this document, these
interoperability constraints could be met by the following sorts of
new message formats:
o A format which uses a different value for the first four bytes of
the format, as provided for in the registry described in
Section 8.
o A format which uses the same value for the Format Identifier field
and a value other than one (1) in the Version field.
Although it is possible to reorganize the last three of the eight
bytes in the existing format, extended formats are unlikely to do so.
New formats would take the form of extensions of the format described
in this document with added fields starting at byte eight of the
format or changes to the definition of bits in the Reserved field.
7. Security Considerations
The reader is directed to the Security Considerations section of
[RFC8166] for background and further discussion.
The RPC-over-RDMA version 1 protocol framework depends on the
semantics of the Reliable Connected (RC) queue pair (QP) type, as
defined in Section 9.7.7 of [IBA]. The integrity of CM Private Data
and the authenticity of its source are ensured by the exclusive use
of RC queue pairs. Any attempt to interfere with or hijack data in
transit on an RC connection results in the RDMA provider terminating
the connection.
The Security Considerations section of [RFC5042] refers the reader to
further relevant discussion of generic RDMA transport security. That
document recommends IPsec as the default transport layer security
solution. When deployed with iWARP, IPsec establishes a protected
channel before any iWARP operations are exchanged, thus it protects
the exchange of Private Data that occurs as each QP is established.
However, IPsec is not available for InfiniBand or RoCE deployments.
Those fabrics rely on physical security and cyclic redundancy checks
to protect network traffic.
Exchanging the information contained in the Private Message format
defined in this document does not expose upper-layer payloads to an
attacker. Furthermore, the behavior changes that occur as a result
of processing the CM Private Data format described in the current
document do not introduce any new risk of exposure of upper-layer
payload data.
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
Improperly setting one of the fields in a version 1 Private Message
can result in an increased risk of disconnection (i.e., self-imposed
Denial of Service). A similar risk can arise if non-RPC-over-RDMA CM
Private Data inadvertently contains the Format Identifier that
identifies this protocol's data structure. Additional checking of
incoming Private Data, as described in Section 5.2, can help reduce
this risk.
In addition to describing the structure of a new format version, any
document that extends the Private Data format described in the
current document must discuss security considerations of new data
items exchanged between connection peers. Such documents should also
explore the risks of erroneously identifying non-RPC-over-RDMA CM
Private Data as the new format.
8. IANA Considerations
In accordance with [RFC8126], the author requests that IANA create a
new registry in the "Remote Direct Data Placement" Protocol Category
Group. The new registry is to be called the "RDMA-CM Private Data
Identifier Registry". This is a registry of 32-bit numbers that
identify the upper-layer protocol associated with data that appears
in the application-specific RDMA-CM Private Data area. The fields in
this registry include: Format Identifier, Format Length (in octets),
Description, and Reference.
The initial contents of this registry are a single entry:
+---------------+--------+------------------------------+-----------+
| Format | Length | Description | Reference |
| Identifier | | | |
+---------------+--------+------------------------------+-----------+
| 0xf6ab0e18 | 8 | RPC-over-RDMA version 1 CM | [RFC-TBD] |
| | | Private Data | |
+---------------+--------+------------------------------+-----------+
Table 1: RDMA-CM Private Data Identifier Registry
IANA is to assign subsequent new entries in this registry using the
Specification Required policy as defined in Section 4.6 of [RFC8126].
8.1. Guidance for Designated Experts
The Designated Expert (DE), appointed by the IESG, should ascertain
the existence of suitable documentation that defines the semantics
and format of the private data, and verify that the document is
permanently and publicly available. Documentation produced outside
the IETF must not conflict with work that is active or already
Lever Expires August 24, 2020 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft RPC-Over-RDMA CM Private Data February 2020
published within the IETF. The new Reference field should contain a
reference to that documentation.
The Description field should contain the name of the upper-layer
protocol that generates and uses the private data.
The DE should assign a new Format Identifier so that it does not
conflict with existing entries in this registry, and so that it is
not likely to be mistaken as part of the payload of other registered
formats.
The DE shall post the request to the nfsv4 WG mailing list (or a
successor to that list, if such a list exists), for comment and
review. The DE shall approve or deny the request and publish notice
of the decision within 30 days.
