Using CX-3 in virtualized mode, MAD packets are proxied through the PF
driver. The feed is N tunnel QPs, and what is received from the VFs is
multiplexed out on the wire QP. Since this is a many-to-one scenario, it
is better to have separate initialization parameters for the two usages.
The number of wire and tunnel bufs are yanked up to 2K and 512
respectively. With this set of parameters, a system consisting of eight
physical servers, each with eight VMs and 14 I/O servers (BM), can run
switch fail-over without seeing:
mlx4_ib_demux_mad: failed sending GSI to slave 3 via tunnel qp (-11)
or
mlx4_ib_multiplex_mad: failed sending GSI to wire on behalf of slave 2 (-11)

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.
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.
