Garrett,
Is the IOMMU space configurable? I wish there are some commands or a file in
/etc/ to modify to expand IOMMU space.

I suspect your driver used all IOMMU space, on OPL, one root complex is
1GB.
The page size as I know is 8K.
Please check the ddi_dma_bind called times, if your requested buf size
every time
is lower than 8k, then every bind will casue IOMMU space 8k.
You checked it in your driver, how much IOMMU space has been consumed in
your driver.
If its 9K, it will be 16K of IOMMU address space consumed.
There may *also* be a limit on the number of IOMMU entries. I know some
platforms had such limitations. Perhaps you can try reducing from 1000
frames prealloc'd to something smaller -- say 512? Is this a 10GbE
driver? If its only 1GbE, then 512 ought to be enough.
