Hi Albert,
I have sent yesterday a patch that may enable working with 1TB of registered 
memory.
Its subject is: [PATCH] net/mlx4_core: Fix num mtt issues.

Can you test it and let us know whether your issue was solved ?
In the meanwhile I have found the root cause of the limit of log_num_mtt of 28.
Plan to send in coming days an extra patch that enables value of 31 which match 
to 8TB.
Yishai

Is there some kind of limit that would prevent me from registering
more than 32 GiB worth of memory regions with ibv_reg_mr in
libibverbs?
Yes, by default mlx4 allocates a limited amount of adapter resources
for tracking memory regions.  I forget the exact limits but 32GB looks
reasonable...
I think we've run into this in a "real" application (i.e., not a test).

Is this limit per-process or per-HCA or per-machine? It seems it might
not be per-process.

Any chance to get this limit increased upstream?

Regards

Albert
