mlx5dv_reg_dmabuf_mr(3) | mlx5dv_reg_dmabuf_mr(3) |
NAME
mlx5dv_reg_dmabuf_mr - Register a dma-buf based memory region (MR)
SYNOPSIS
-
#include <infiniband/mlx5dv.h> struct ibv_mr *mlx5dv_reg_dmabuf_mr(struct ibv_pd *pd, uint64_t offset, size_t length, uint64_t iova, int fd, int access, int mlx5_access)
DESCRIPTION
Register a dma-buf based memory region (MR), it follows the functionality of ibv_reg_dmabuf_mr() with the ability to supply specific mlx5 access flags.
ARGUMENTS
-
The length of the MR.
- iova
- Specifies the virtual base address of the MR when accessed through a lkey or rkey. It must have the same page offset as offset and be aligned with the system page size.
- fd
- The file descriptor that the dma-buf is identified by.
- access
- The desired memory protection attributes; it is either 0 or the bitwise OR of one or more of enum ibv_access_flags.
- mlx5_access
- A specific device access flags, it is either 0 or the below.
MLX5DV_REG_DMABUF_ACCESS_DATA_DIRECT if set, this MR will be accessed through the Data Direct engine bonded with that RDMA device.
RETURN VALUE
Upon success returns a pointer to the registered MR, or NULL if the request fails, in that case the value of errno indicates the failure reason.
