For RDMA transports, RDS TOS is an extension of IB QoS(Annex A13) to provide clients the ability to segregate traffic flows for different type of data. RDMA CM abstract it for ULPs using rdma_set_service_type(). Internally, each traffic flow is represented by a connection with all of its independent resources like that of a normal connection, and is differentiated by service type. In other words, there can be multiple qp connections between an IP pair and each supports a unique service type. The feature has been added from RDSv4.1 onwards and supports rolling upgrades. RDMA connection metadata also carries the tos information to set up SL on end to end context. The original code was developed by Bang Nguyen in downstream kernel back in 2.6.32 kernel days and it has evolved over period of time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
