As most kernel RDMA ULPs, (e.g. NVMe over Fabrics in its default
"register_always=Y" mode) registers and invalidates user buffer
upon each IO.
Today the mlx5 driver is posting the registration work
request using scatter/gather entry for the MTT/KLM list.
The fetch of the MTT/KLM list becomes the bottleneck in
number of IO operation could be done by NVMe over Fabrics
host driver on a single adapter as shown below.
This patch is adding the support for inline registration
work request upon MTT/KLM list of size <=64B.
The result for NVMe over Fabrics is increase of > x3.5 for small
IOs as shown below, I expect other ULPs (e.g iSER, SRP, NFS over RDMA)
performance to be enhanced as well.
The following results were taken against a single NVMe-oF (RoCE link layer)
subsystem with a single namespace backed by null_blk using fio benchmark
(with rw=randread, numjobs=48, iodepth={16,64}, ioengine=libaio direct=1):

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
