Both the PKEY and GID tables in an HCA can hold in the order of hundreds
entries. Reading them is expensive. Partly because the API for retrieving
them only returns a single entry at a time. Further, on certain
implementations, e.g., CX-3, the VFs are paravirtualized in this respect
and have to rely on the PF driver to perform the read. This again demands
VF to PF communication.
IB Core's cache is refreshed on all events. Hence, filter the refresh of
the PKEY and GID caches based on the event received being
IB_EVENT_PKEY_CHANGE and IB_EVENT_GID_CHANGE respectively.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
