Hi,
 
   I am facing a problem on FreeBSD 7.0 during mapping using '
bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg ( ) ' function .
   Details are below.
 
   It is AMD 64 bit machine. I have allocated jumbo buffer memory using
' m_getcl ' function.
 
       mp = m_getjcl(M_DONTWAIT, MT_DATA, M_PKTHDR,  MJUM9BYTES);
 
    As it got success here, I am trying to map the buffer as below.
        
       err = bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(dma_tag_rx, map, mp, &seg, &cnt,
BUS_DMA_NOWAIT);
        
      Here it is getting error for the mbuf size equal to  MJUM9BYTES.
The type of error is ' EFBIG  '.
   
    I have create  rx jumbo dma tag with attributes as following.
 
    bus_dma_tag_create(

        NULL,                               /* Parent  */

        PAGE_SIZE,                    /* Alignment */               
        0,                                    /* Bounds  */

        BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR, /* Low Address  */                  
        BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR, /* High Address   */               
        NULL,                     /* Filter Function           */

        NULL,                     /* Filter Function Arguments */

        MJUM9BYTES,       /* Maximum Size              */

        1 ,                           /* Number of Segments        */

        MJUM9BYTES,       /* Maximum Segment Size      */

        BUS_DMA_ALLOCNOW,  /* Flags                     */

        NULL,              /* Lock Function             */

        NULL,              /* Lock Function Arguments   */

        dma_tag_rx)     /* DMA Tag                   */

    I have seen the myri10ge and mxge source code, they are allocating
maximum buffer size as MJUMPAGESIZE.
    is it like this is the maximum size we can dmamap??
 
      could anyone  help me on this.
 
 
Thanks,
Sankar.
