I found it. The rxe driver had set the max_segment_size to UINT_MAX (0xffffffff) which triggered the warning since it has an 'offset into page' in __sg_alloc_table_from_pages. Can you tell me what this parameter is supposed to do and what is a reasonable value. What scares me is that the default used in ib_umem_get is 64K. Does this have anything to do with the largest SGL size or is it something else.

Bob
