Do you have a real MR<->PD association in HW? If so, can you point me to the
code that binds it? If not, any reason not to expose the local_dma_lkey?

Yes, we send the pd id to the FW in function qed_rdma_register_tid.

Right, thanks.

In any case, if we didn't have the association in HW
Wouldn't the local_dma_lkey be relevant only to dma_mr ? ( code snippet above refers to FMR)

I was just sticking to a location in the code where you associate
MR<->PD...

The local_dma_lkey is a special key that spans the entire memory space
and unlike the notorious dma_mr, its not associated with a PD.

See the code in ib_alloc_pd(), if the device does not support a single
device local dma lkey, the core allocates a dma mr associated with
the pd. If your device has such a key, you can save a dma mr allocation
for each pd in the system.
