RDS: Connection handling
While arguably the fact that the underlying transport needs a connection to convey RDS's datagrame reliably is not important to rds proper, the transports implemented so far (IB and TCP) have both been connection-oriented, and so the connection state machine-related code is in the common rds code. This patch also includes several work items, to handle connecting, sending, receiving, and shutdown. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
