Bidirectional Remote Procedure Call on RPC-over-RDMA Transports
RFC 8167, “Bidirectional Remote Procedure Call on RPC-over-RDMA Transports”, is a Proposed Standard document published in June 2017 by C. Lever. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Minor versions of Network File System (NFS) version 4 newer than minor version 0 work best when Remote Procedure Call (RPC) transports can send RPC transactions in both directions on the same connection. This document describes how RPC transport endpoints capable of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) convey RPCs in both directions on a single connection.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
