In some firmware configuration, UMR usage from Virtual Functions is restricted. This information is published to the driver using new capability bits. Avoid using UMRs in these cases and use the Firmware slow-path flow to create mkeys and populate them with Virtual to Physical address translation. Older drivers that do not have this patch, will end up using memory keys that aren't populated with Virtual to Physical address translation that is done part of the UMR work.

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.
