Currently IPoIB connected mode queries the device to get the pkey table entry during connection formation. This will increase the time taken to form the connection, especially when limited pkeys are in use. This gets worse when multiple connection attempts are done in parallel. Since ipoib interfaces are locked to a single pkey, use the pkey index that was determined at link up time instead of searching for anything. This improved the latency from 500ms to 1ms on an internal setup.

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.
