Connect with O_NONBLOCK will not be completed immediately
and returns -EINPROGRESS. It is possible to use selector/poll
for completion by selecting the socket for writing. After select
indicates writability, a second connect function call will return
0 to indicate connected successfully as TCP does, but smc returns
-EISCONN. Use socket state for smc to indicate connect state, which
can help smc aligning the connect behaviour with TCP.

I stumbled over this when thinking about the fallback processing. If for whatever reason
fallback==true during smc_connect(), the "if (smc->use_fallback)" below would set sock->state
to e.g. SS_CONNECTED. But in the fallback case sk_state keeps SMC_INIT. So during the next call
the SS_CONNECTING case above would break because sk_state in NOT SMC_ACTIVE, and we would end
up calling kernel_connect() again. Which seems to be no problem when kernel_connect() returns
-EISCONN and we return this to the caller. But is this how it should work, or does it work by chance?

Since the sk_state keeps SMC_INIT and does not correctly indicate the state of clcsock, it should end
up calling kernel_connect() again to get the actual connection state of clcsock.
And I'm sorry there is a problem that if sock->state==SS_CONNECTED and sk_state==SMC_INIT, further call
of smc_connect will return -EINVAL where -EISCONN is preferred.
The steps to reproduce:
1)switch fallback before connect, such as setsockopt TCP_FASTOPEN
2)connect with noblocking and returns -EINPROGRESS. (sock->state changes to SS_CONNECTING)
3) end up calling connect with noblocking again and returns 0. (kernel_connect() returns 0 and sock->state changes to
SS_CONNECTED but sk->sk_state stays SMC_INIT)
4) call connect again, maybe by mistake, will return -EINVAL, but -EISCONN is preferred.
What do you think about if we synchronize the sk_state to SMC_ACTIVE instead of keeping SMC_INIT when clcsock
connected successfully in fallback case described above.

sock->state = rc ? SS_CONNECTING : SS_CONNECTED;

I start thinking that the fix in 86434744 introduced a problem. Before that fix a connect with
fallback always reached __smc_connect() and on top of that function in case of fallback
smc_connect_fallback() is called, which itself sets sk_state to SMC_ACTIVE.
86434744 removed that code path and I wonder what it actually fixed, because at this time the
fallback check in __smc_connect() was already present.
Without that "goto out;" the state would be set correctly in smc_connect_fallback(), and the
socket close processing would work as expected.

Yes that was the purpose, but this disabled all the extra processing that should be done
for fallback sockets during connect().

I think it is OK without that "goto out;". And I guess the purpose of "goto out;" is to avoid calling __smc_connect(),
because it is impossible to establish an rdma channel at this time.

Since Karsten's suggestion, we didn't hear from you any more. We just
want to know:
- What do you think about the commit (86434744)? Could it be the trigger
of the problem you met?
- Have you ever tried to just remove the following lines from
smc_connection(), and check if your scenario could run correctly?
if (smc->use_fallback)
goto out;
In our opinion, we don't see the necessity of the patch, if partly
reverting the commit (86434744) could solve the problem.

I'm so sorry I missed the last emails for this discussion.
Yes, commit (86434744) is the trigger of the problem described in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-s390/[email protected]/#t .
And I have tested just remove the following lines from smc_connection() can solve the above problem.
if (smc->use_fallback)
goto out;
I aggree that partly reverting the commit (86434744) is a better solution.
Thanks,

Thank you for your effort!
Would you like to revert this patch? We'll revert the commit (86434744)
partly.

Did you mean revert commit (3aba1030)?
Sorry, I think I led to a misunderstanding. I mean commit (86434744) is the trigger of the problem I replied
in email https://lore.kernel.org/linux-s390/[email protected]/#t, not
the problem that commit (3aba1030) resolved for.
So I think the final solution is to remove the following lines from smc_connection() based on the current code.
if (smc->use_fallback) {
sock->state = rc ? SS_CONNECTING : SS_CONNECTED;
goto out;
}
Thanks,

That would be also ok for us, thanks!
