All protocols cares about transferring data and sending messages, so it's not a good enough reason for a poor registration method choice. This just emphasizes why we need to converge to a single method.
In my opinion, we already have it. For local registrations, ib_reg_phys_mr()/ib_get_dma_mr(). These are not quite equivalent, btw. For remote registrations, ib_post_send(FRMR). Unfortunately, there exist ancient adapters in-tree that don't support FRMR, and some ULPs have attempted to work on them. That's why the situation is confusing. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
