RPC-over-RDMA Version Two will likely require at least a 4KB inline
threshold by default. The Version One inline threshold is still 1KB,
and it's automatically negotiated down to in
rpcrdma_update_connect_private.

The maximum is somewhat arbitrary. There's no fundamental
architectural limit I'm aware of, but it's good to keep the size of
Receive buffers reasonable. Now that Send can use a s/g list, a
Send buffer is only as large as each RPC requires. Receive buffers
are always the size of the inline threshold, however.

I'm curious, what is the status of RPCoRDMA v2?

Thanks,
Anna

There is a personal draft published:

  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-cel-nfsv4-rpcrdma-version-two/

And being discussed actively in the nfsv4 Working Group.

The features added in this series are usable with the Linux V1 implementation
too; the point being to experiment with these new facilities before we finish
RPC-over-RDMA Version Two.
