You run the risk of stack corruption by declaring such a large automatic variable, so move the array of 'struct ib_phys_buf' objects into the transport structure 'struct rpcrdma_xprt' (which is dynamically allocated) in order to silence the frame-larger-than warning.

I will test it. Tim could you please send me a final version that you'd like tested as a single message?
Would someone (like Tim maybe ... hint hint) look at tearing out all those dead registration strategies? I don't think we need or will ever use bounce-buffers, memory windows, or mlnx fmr. The only two that are used and tested are all-phys and FRMR (the default).

In future if we do decide to also increase the size of that array we may need to allocate it separately from struct rpcrdma_xprt itself, which looks already fairly large without it; on x86_64: $ gdb net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/xprtrdma.ko ... (gdb) p sizeof(struct rpcrdma_xprt) $1 = 2912 But that shouldn't be a big deal to do. --b.net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.c | 10 ++++++---- net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/xprt_rdma.h | 5 ++++- 2 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.c b/net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.c index 93726560..c7aa3da 100644 --- a/net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.c @@ -1730,13 +1730,14 @@ rpcrdma_deregister_memwin_external(struct rpcrdma_mr_seg *seg, }static int-rpcrdma_register_default_external(struct rpcrdma_mr_seg *seg, - int *nsegs, int writing, struct rpcrdma_ia *ia) +rpcrdma_register_default_external(struct rpcrdma_xprt *r_xprt, + struct rpcrdma_mr_seg *seg, int *nsegs, int writing, + struct rpcrdma_ia *ia) { int mem_priv = (writing ?
