RDMA/umem: Move to allocate SG table from pages
Remove the implementation of ib_umem_add_sg_table and instead call to __sg_alloc_table_from_pages which already has the logic to merge contiguous pages. Besides that it removes duplicated functionality, it reduces the memory consumption of the SG table significantly. Prior to this patch, the SG table was allocated in advance regardless consideration of contiguous pages. In huge pages system of 2MB page size, without this change, the SG table would contain x512 SG entries. E.g. for 100GB memory registration: Number of entries Size Before 26214400 600.0MB After 51200 1.2MB Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201004154340.1080481-5-leon@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Maor Gottlieb <maorg@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com>
