Can you define "wrong value" in this case? Chuck's RPC/RDMA code appears to call ib_alloc_mr() with an 'expected maximum number of entries' (depth) in net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/frwr_ops.c:frwr_mr_init(). It then fills that table with a set of n <= depth pages in net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/frwr_ops.c:frwr_map() and calls ib_dma_map_sg() to map them, and then adjusts the sgtable with a call to ib_map_mr_sg(). What part of that sequence of operations is incorrect? > > Jason -- Trond Myklebust Linux NFS client maintainer, Hammerspace trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
