Suppose a VF driver wants to register large amount of memory using FMR, will it be able to do so using the mlx4 code.
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"
