But even user space will submit 10 ibs this submission, the calculate of 256*ibs is totally overflow, remember that ring buffer is only 4kb size

Well userspace is allowed to send any number of IBs down to this if I remember correctly.

So we clearly need something depending on the number of IBs or reject submissions with to many IBs earlier in the CS.

Otherwise we clearly open up a possible problem where userspace can trigger a ring overrun.

Christian.
