[ Upstream commit bd85fbc2038a1bbe84990b23ff69b6fc81a32b2c ] When re-registering a user mr, the mpt information for the existing mr when running SRIOV is obtained via the QUERY_MPT fw command. The returned information includes the mpt's lkey. This retrieved mpt information is used to move the mpt back to hardware ownership in the rereg flow (via the SW2HW_MPT fw command when running SRIOV). The fw API spec states that for SW2HW_MPT, the lkey field must be zero. Any ConnectX-3 PF driver which checks for strict spec adherence will return failure for SW2HW_MPT if the lkey field is not zero (although the fw in practice ignores this field for SW2HW_MPT). Thus, in order to conform to the fw API spec, set the lkey field to zero before invoking SW2HW_MPT when running SRIOV.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
