Fortunately, we only need to use reserved fields, and the current reserved fields are sufficient. And then we can easily add a new extension named SIGNLE LINK. Limited by space, the details will be elaborated after the scheme is finalized.

Hi all,

On the basis of previous,If we can put the application data over the PROPOSAL message,
we can achieve SMC 0-RTT. Its process should be similar to the following:

client									server
	PROPOSAL MESSAGE
		with first contact
		with 0RTT query extension
		-------->

	ACCEPT MESSAGE
			with(or without)
			0RTT response extension
		<--------

	CONFIRM MESSAGE
		-------->

client									server
	PROPOSAL MESSAGE
		without	first contact
		with ORTT Data
		-------->

	ACCEPT MESSAGE
		<---------

	CONFIRM MESSAGE
		-------->

If so, using reserved bit to exchange feature are not enough. We have a simple design
to perform compatibility with legacy extensions and support future extensions.

This draft try to unify all the areas named extension in current
SMC v2 protocol spec, includes 'PROPOSAL V1 IP Subnet Extension',
'PROPOSAL V2 Extension', 'PROPOSAL SMC-DV2 EXTENSION',
and 'First Contact Extension'.

This draft does lots of compromise designs in order to achieve compatibility.
I believe there must have better ways. Let me get the ball rolling. And please let
me know if you have any suggestions or better ideas. This draft of the design
is as follows:

SMC V2 CLC PROPOSAL MESSAGE:

+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|0	50     |NOT changed						    |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|50    |2      |SMC Version 2 Extension Offset(applicable when SMC V2)      |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|52    |19     |Reserved for growth                                         |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|71    |*      |Extension Area  (reserved before)                           |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|71    |2      |number of Extensions  (reserved before)                     |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|73    |7      |V1 IP Subnet Extension Header (when applicable)             |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|73    |7      |Padding Extension (when V1 IP Subnet Extension not present) |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|80    |*      |V1 IP Subnet Extension Payload (when applicable)            |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|      |       |V2 Extension (when applicable)                              |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|      |       |other available Extension (when applicable)                 |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|*     |4      |Eye catcher ‘SMCR’ (EBCDIC) message end                     |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+

Notes:

     1. In the current implementation, server read the proposal message with
fixed length, areas beyond the length will be silently ignored, and server will give
up to check eye catcher. Therefore, It's safe to extend the message from the tail.

     2. (reserved before) means that the areas used to be reserved.

     3. none of the existing fields have their offsets changed
within the PROPOSAL message.


Extension Areas Format:

+------+-------+-----------------------+
|0     |*      |Extensions Area        |
+------+-------+-----------------------+
|0     |2      |Number of Extensions   |
+------+-------+-----------------------+
|2     |*      |Extensions             |
+------+-------+-----------------------+
|      |       |End of Extensions Area |
+------+-------+-----------------------+

notes:

     1. All extensions within the extension areas should be contiguous.


Extension Format:

+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|0     |*      |Extension                               |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|0     |6+     |Extension header                        |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|0     |4      |reserved                                |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|2     |*      |Extension Type (variable length)        |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|*     |*      |Payload Length (variable length)        |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+
|*     |*      |payload                                 |
+------+-------+----------------------------------------+

notes:

     1. This scheme was specially designed to be compatible with
'PROPOSAL V2 Extension', since it is the only extension with no
reserved octets ahead of it.

     2. Another special case is 'PROPOSAL SMC-DV2 EXTENSION', it's also
has no reserved octets ahead of it, but it can be treats as an
optional part of 'PROPOSAL V2 Extension'.

     3. To be compatible with 'PROPOSAL V2 Extension', there are only
2 reserved octets left to place type and length fields. If octet per
each fileds, there can be only a maximum of 255 extension types and
a maximum length of 255. For better scalability, the type and length
fields are encoded as variable length integer.

variable length integer encoding:

+--------------+-------+---------------+--------+
|first bit     |octet  |Usable Bits    |Range   |
+--------------+-------+---------------+--------+
|0             |1      |7              |0-127   |
+--------------+-------+---------------+--------+
|1             |2      |15             |0-32767 |
+--------------+-------+---------------+--------+

notes;

     1. This design introduces some complexity and we can totally give it
up if we do not need more than 255 extensions at all.

V1 IP Subnet Extension Format:

+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|0     |7      |Extension Header                                 |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|0     |4      |Reserved                                         |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|4     |1      |Extension type(0x2)                              |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|5     |2      |payload length                                   |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|7     |*      |V1 IP Subnet Extension Payload                   |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|7     |5      |Client IPv4 Subnet Mask (IPv4 only)              |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|7     |4      |Subnet Mask                                      |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|9     |2      |Reserved                                         |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|11    |*      |Client IPv6 Prefix Array (zero for IPv4)         |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|11    |1      |Number of IPv6 Prefixes in Prefix array (1 - 8)  |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+
|12    |*      |Prefix Array, variable length array              |
+------+-------+-------------------------------------------------+

notes:

     1. newly V1 IP Subnet Extension borrows 7 octets from the
reserved fields in the upper near part to form a completed extension.

     2. none of the existing fields have their offsets changed
within the PROPOSAL message.

Padding Extension Format:

+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|0     |2      |Reserved                       |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|2     |1      |Extension type(0x0)            |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|3     |*      |Payload length                 |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|*     |*      |Padding (fill with 0x0)        |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+

notes:

     1. Padding Extension is used to fill reserved areas that
have not been used yet. It doesn't mean anything, and can be replaced
in the future.

SMCv2 EXTENSION Format:

+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|0     |8      |SMCv2 Extension - Client Options Area (SMCRv2 & SMCDv2)     |

|33    |7      |Continuation extension (reserved before)                    |

|33    |4      |Reserved                                                    |

+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+
|*     |*      |SMCDv2 optional area (used to called SMCDv2 extension)      |
+------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------+

notes:

     1. newly V2 EXTENSION use several reserved octets to form a completed
extension. Note that none of the existing fields have their offsets changed
within the PROPOSAL message.

     2. the size of SMCv2 EXTENSION plus maximum size of EID Array Area is
much bigger than the highest number that one octet can represent. To be
compatible with 'legacy V2 Extension', there are only 2 reserved octets left to
place type and length fields. therefore, we use Continuation Extension to solve
it.

Continuation Extension Format:

+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|0     |4      |Reserved                       |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|4     |1      |Extension type(0x1)            |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|5     |*      |payload length                 |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+
|*     |*      |Continuation data              |
+------+-------+-------------------------------+

notes:

     1. Indicate that the content of this extension is continuation of
the content of its previous extension.

     2. In order to be compatible with some existing extensions,
when the reserved bytes that can be used are not enough to represent
its maximum length.
