smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu/device are the ops used for dma memory cache consistency. Smc sndbufs are dma buffers, where CPU writes data to it and PCIE device reads data from it. So for sndbufs, smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is needed and smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is redundant as PCIE device will not write the buffers. Smc rmbs are dma buffers, where PCIE device write data to it and CPU read data from it. So for rmbs, smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is needed and smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is redundant as CPU will not write the buffers.

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.
