Revision c0cf4512a31eb3cec70b066bc36ed55f7d05b8c0 authored by Bart Van Assche on 23 June 2016, 07:35:48 UTC, committed by Doug Ledford on 23 June 2016, 16:04:09 UTC
The memory needed for the send and receive queues associated with
a QP is proportional to the max_sge parameter. The current value
of that parameter is such that with an mlx4 HCA the QP buffer size
is 8 MB. Since DMA is used for communication between HCA and CPU
that buffer either has to be allocated coherently or map_single()
must succeed for that buffer. Since large contiguous allocations
are fragile and since the maximum segment size for e.g. swiotlb
is 256 KB, reduce the max_sge parameter. This patch avoids that
the following text appears on the console after SRP logout and
relogin on a system equipped with multiple IB HCAs:

mlx4_core 0000:05:00.0: swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 8388608 bytes)
swiotlb: coherent allocation failed for device 0000:05:00.0 size=8388608
