I'm trying to test this patch on s390x but I'm running into the same
issue I ran into with the original SMC namespace
support:https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/8701fa4557026983a9ec687cfdd7ac5b3b85fd39.camel@linux.ibm.com/

Just like back then I'm using a server and a client network namespace
on the same system with two ConnectX-4 VFs from the same card and port.
Both TCP/IP traffic as well as user-space RDMA via "qperf … rc_bw" and
`qperf … rc_lat` work between namespaces and definitely go via the
card.

I did use "rdma system set netns exclusive" then moved the RDMA devices
into the namespaces with "rdma dev set <rdma_dev> netns <namespace>". I
also verified with "ip netns exec <namespace> rdma dev"
that the RDMA devices are in the network namespace and as seen by the
qperf runs normal RDMA does work.

For reference the smc_chck tool gives me the following output:

Server started on port 37373
[DEBUG] Interfaces to check: eno4378
Test with target IP 10.10.93.12 and port 37373
  Live test (SMC-D and SMC-R)
[DEBUG] Running client: smc_run /tmp/echo-clt.x0q8iO 10.10.93.12 -p
37373
[DEBUG] Client result: TCP 0x05000000/0x03030000
     Failed  (TCP fallback), reasons:
          Client:        0x05000000   Peer declined during handshake
          Server:        0x03030000   No SMC devices found (R and D)

I also checked that SMC is generally working, once I add an ISM device
I do get SMC-D between the namespaces. Any ideas what could break SMC-R
here?

Thanks,
Niklas
