yes. There are certain contstraints though. For example, vec1 has to be
physically contiguous and end on a page boundary, and vec2 would have to
start on a page boundary and be physically contiguous. IE fastreg mrs
are typically used to register an array of pages (not necessarily all
contiguous pages), not arbitrary regions.

Yes, if you have the two vecs fast registered as one mr, then you could
send it using a single work request and even a single SGE in that work
request.

Not exactly. The result of fast registering those two regions would be a
single iova_base (aka the addr field in an SGE) and [lr]key. Those would
be used to describe the data in a send wr, probably as a single SGE.
It sounds like what you really need is either to use a dma mr or to
register the regions separately. Unless those vecs meet the criteria I
mentioned above..

I don't know much about SRQs, maybe someone else knows how these are
implemented.
