From 8fcaa7d5000c8e3b2b7db235d2c279ccb98a6dec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Olaf Kirch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2008 00:27:35 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] RDS: reduce struct rds_ib_send_work size
Currently, struct rds_ib_send_work contains an array of 29 ib_sge's, making the total size of each entry around 512 bytes. This severely limits the maximum size of the send WQ, as we allocate the array of work entries via one kmalloc() call. Another problem with this approach is that SENDs never use more than 2 SGEs anyway, so that fully utilize the SGE array for RDMA ops only, anyway. Change this to 8 SGEs, which seems to be a better balance. An alternative (but much more intrusive) patch would have been to replace the s_sge array with a pointer, and allocate the sge array dynamically. For OFED 1.3.1 I chose the more conservative approach.
