[Ips] iSER Data-in clarification

[Arne Redlich <arne.redlich at googlemail.com>]

Hi,

I'm unclear on the granularity with which an iSER target is supposed to
transfer Data-In via RDMA writes. Here's the pieces of information I'm
trying to tie together:

(1) The iSER spec replaces the initiator's MaxRecvDataSegmentLength with
InitiatorMaxRecvDSL, but this only applies to control type PDUs
(2) MaxBurstLength limits the size of Data-{In,Out} sequences, however,
the iSER spec is silent about Data-In sequences.
(3) RFC 5046, 7.3.5 (SCSI Data-In):
 "2. It MUST generate and send an RDMA Write Message containing the read
data to the initiator [...]
  c. It MUST use DataSegmentLength from the SCSI Data-in PDU to
determine the amount of data to be sent in the RDMA Write Message."

What is the iSCSI layer at the target supposed to use as
DataSegmentLength? MaxBurstLength? The full Data-In length?

Thanks in advance,
Arne
