iWARP requires a minimum of 4 send SGEs (draft-hilland-verbs 8.1.3.2)
An RI MUST support at least four Scatter/Gather Elements per
Scatter/Gather List when the Scatter/Gather List refers to the Data
Source of a Send Operation Type or the Data Sink of a Receive
Operation. An RI is NOT REQUIRED to support more than one
Scatter/Gather Element per Scatter/Gather List when the
Scatter/Gather List refers to the Data Source of an RDMA Write.
I'm not certain if IB and RoCE state a similar minimum requirement,
but it seems a very bad idea to have fewer.
