When page fault event for a WQE arrives, the event data contains the
resource (e.g. QP) number which will later be used by the page fault
handler to retrieve the resource. Meanwhile, another context can destroy
the resource and cause use-after-free. To avoid that, take a reference on the
resource when handler starts and release it when it ends.
Page fault events for RDMA operations don't need to be protected because
the driver doesn't need to access the QP in the page fault handler.

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.
