[PATCH 1/2] IB/mlx5: posting klm/mtt list inline in the send queue for reg_wr

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Idan Burstein <idanb@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

As most kernel RDMA ULPs, NVMe over Fabrics in its secure
"register_always" mode registers and invalidates user buffer
upon each IO.

Today the mlx5 driver is posting the registration work
request using scatter/gather entry for the MTT/KLM list.

The fetch of the MTT/KLM list becomes the bottleneck in
number of IO operation could be done by NVMe over Fabrics
host driver on a single adapter as shown below.

This patch is adding the support for inline registration
work request upon MTT/KLM list of size <=64B.

The result for NVMe over Fabrics is increase of x3.6 for small
IOs as shown below, I expect other ULPs (e.g iSER, NFS over RDMA)
performance to be enhanced as well.

The following results were taken against a single nvme over fabrics
subsystem with a single namespace backed by null_blk:
