Hi Leon, Tejun, Christoph, Liran, Doug, Matan, So are you ok with below proposal? 1. Define two resources by rdmacg. (a) hca_handles (covers doorbell pages) (b) hca_resources (mr, pd, qp, srq, vendor defined, all consolidated count) Both cannot be combined as explained in [1]. 2. User configures absolute count for above two resources (similar to today's file descriptors, pid cgroup controller max limit) Leon, Let us know if you have any further discussions during LPC on questions of [2] in using percentage based scheme or otherwise.
