I have moved mlx4_txq_add_mr() to mlx_mr.c. One of the disadvantages of mov= ing it is that now=20 it requires adding #include "mlx4_rxtx.h" in the C file in order to know th= e details of txq struct. I liked mlx4_mr.c for being encapsulated from any Tx/Rx specific structures= and just handling MR issues. >=20 > -- > Adrien Mazarguil > 6WIND
