Hello Christoph,

After having applied the following patch:

diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/core/rw.c b/drivers/infiniband/core/rw.c
index c6e8483..940dee8 100644
--- a/drivers/infiniband/core/rw.c

 		reg->mr = ib_mr_pool_get(qp, &qp->rdma_mrs);
 		if (!reg->mr) {
+			pr_debug("failed to allocate MR %d/%d from pool (in use: %d)\n",
+				 i, ctx->nr_ops, qp->mrs_used);
 			ret = -EAGAIN;
 			goto out_free;
 		}

and after having run:

echo 'module ib_core +pmf' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

the following output appeared:
