RDMA/cma: Use ACK timeout for RoCE packetLifeTime
The cma is currently using a hard-coded value, CMA_IBOE_PACKET_LIFETIME, for the PacketLifeTime, as it can not be determined from the network. This value might not be optimal for all networks. The cma module supports the function rdma_set_ack_timeout to set the ACK timeout for a QP associated with a connection. As per IBTA 12.7.34 local ACK timeout = (2 * PacketLifeTime + Local CA’s ACK delay). Assuming a negligible local ACK delay, we can use PacketLifeTime = local ACK timeout/2 as a reasonable approximation for RoCE networks.
