[net-next][PATCH 11/13] RDS: IB: add Fastreg MR (FRMR) detection support

From: Santosh Shilimkar
Date: Sat Feb 20 2016 - 06:33:47 EST


Discovere Fast Memmory Registration support using IB device
IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS. Certain HCA might support just FRMR
or FMR or both FMR and FRWR. In case both mr type are supported,
default FMR is used. Using module parameter 'prefer_frmr',
user can choose its preferred MR method for RDS. Ofcourse the
module parameter has no effect if the HCA support only FRMR
or only FRMR.

Default MR is still kept as FMR against what everyone else
is following. Default will be changed to FRMR once the
RDS performance with FRMR is comparable with FMR. The
work is in progress for the same.
