SGEs that are contiguous needlessly consume driver dependent TX resources. The lkey validation logic is enhanced to compress the SGE that ends up in the send wqe when consecutive addresses are detected. The lkey validation API used to return 1 (success) or 0 (fail). The return value is now an -errno, 0 (compressed), or 1 (uncompressed). A additional argument is added to pass the last SQE for the compression. Loopback callers always pass a NULL to last_sge since the optimization is of little benefit in that situation.

README
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.
