The user ask for 0x4000 PDs
The THH layer keep 2 PDs for itself so the IBAL report on 0x3ffe PDs
available
while the IBAL is loaded (in creat_ci_ca) IBAL take one more PD (for
SQP..) so the user can allocate only 0x3ffd PDs
Do you think that IBAL should report 1 PD less so the user will know
exactly how many resources he actually can allocate ?
The reported values are the maximum supported by the HCA, the fact that
some are in use should not be included in the value. Otherwise, IBAL
could report the number currently available, rather than the max.
