no, the proprietary FMRs are not supported for mlx4 VFs, nor for mlx5 both PF/VFs


Or FMR is supported only in dedicated mode?

use the fast reg API, see for example this commit 5587856 "IB/iser: Introduce fast memory registration model (FRWR)" how this is done. The API was introduced in commit 00f7ec3 "RDMA/core: Add memory management extensions support"
