Why can't we leave this check forever? If HW supports only, say 4k page size, and runs on a 64k page size architecture it should be able to fragment into the native HW page size. The whole point of these APIs is to decouple the system and HW page sizes. Jason

No, I didn't prevent anything, I've left those drivers just hardwired to use PAGE_SHIFT/PAGE_SIZE. Maybe they are broken and malfunction on 64k page size systems, maybe the HW supports other pages sizes and they should call ib_umem_find_best_pgsz(), I don't really know. The fix is fairly trivial, but it can't be done until the drivers stop touching umem->sgl - as it requires changing how the sgl is constructed to match standard kernel expectations, which also breaks all the drivers.

Not sure if we were exposed today. i.e. rdma drivers working with block sizes smaller than system page size?

Yes, it could happen, here are some examples: drivers/infiniband/hw/i40iw/i40iw_verbs.c: iwmr->page_size = ib_umem_find_best_pgsz(region, SZ_4K | SZ_2M, drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/ib_verbs.c: page_shift = __ffs(ib_umem_find_best_pgsz(umem, BNXT_RE_PAGE_SIZE_4K | BNXT_RE_PAGE_SIZE_2M, virt_addr)); Eg that breaks on a ARM with 16k or 64k page sizes.

rdma_for_each_block() makes assumptions about how the SGL is constructed that don't work if the block size is below the page size used to to build the SGL. The rules for umem SGL construction require that the SG's all be PAGE_SIZE aligned and we don't encode the actual byte offset of the VA range inside the SGL using offset and length. So rdma_for_each_block() has no idea where the actual starting/ending point is to compute the first/last block boundary if the starting address should be within a SGL. Fixing the SGL construction turns out to be really hard, and will be the subject of other patches. For now block smaller pages.
