Hi.

If one wishes to use maximum inline data, he should open a QP with maximum number of s/g entries in the QP->SQ (ibv_qp_init_attr.cap.max_send_sge). The actual number of bytes which can be send as inline will be returned in the attribute ibv_qp_init_attr.cap.max_inline_data after ibv_create_qp will be finished.

The inline size effects the size of memory which is being used (and pinned) for the QP buffers/queues
(per WR in the QP->SQ).

I'm sorry, but i don't really know what is exactly the size which is being consumed for a QP (I remember that in the past, Roland mentioned the exact calculation in one of the emails that he sent
to this mailing list).

thanks
Dotan

how a QP consumes physical memory, and what the relationship with inline data

Thanks.

Subject: [ofa-general] max inline data query ?

Sorry, I know that we had this discussion before but could
someone refresh my memory. Are there plans to add a query for
max inline data size?

Right now I have no other mechanism but to call
ibv_create_qp, increasing inline size for a given sge count,
until it fails.

Thanks,
