retry_count, I assume, is for connection establishment?  For the Chelsio

retransmit rules apply, but once TCP gives up, then the rdma connection
establishment will fail.
On IB, this is a transport level retry of a lost request.
Ah, ok. Regardless, TCP handles all that for IWARP and we currently don't provide the rdma application any way to manipulate the TCP behavior.
