HI George,
In section 6.18.9.6.2.2 it is stated:
If a Close Connection request was received, then this transition shall
include a Close Connection argument.
If a Begin Close message was received, then this transition shall include a
Full Duplex Close argument.
Both of these could be true at the same time, the PL requesting close and an
RRDY / EXTEND (CLOSE) came in from an expander that set the Begin Close msg.
In this case which takes precedence? I would think it should be the Begin
Close as that will result in a full duplex close to the remote end. But the
spec has neither a ordered list nor exclusive language, and the 1st one
listed is not the one that I think should take effect.
Thoughts? Do we need some edit in this area?
Craig
