The implementation reuses the external memory registration work done by commit[1]. Note about representors: The current representor design will not work with those map and unmap functions. The reason is that for representors we have multiple IB devices share the same PCI function, so mapping will happen only on one of the representors and not all of them. While it is possible to implement such support, the IB representor design is going to be changed during DPDK19.05. The new design will have a single IB device for all representors, hence sharing of a single memory region between all representors will be possible.
