[ofw] windows srp

[Michael Di Domenico]

Fab,

 

Are there no runtime tunables like there are for linux?  Are the drivers
capable of sending large block IO's, like on the order of 512k or 1024k
bytes per?

The SRP driver uses the maximum of number of SGEs that can fit into an
ItoT IU size or 17.  This in at least 64K I/O size maximum.  The driver
could be modified to increase the minimum size from 17 to some higher
number - I think it's just a compile-time constant in one of the
headers.

Is it possible to change the default block IO sizes for SRP sending data
to native infiniband storage devices running under windows?

 

The application is requesting large block IO, but SRP seems to be
chunking the data down to smaller blocks.

 

Thanks
