Dust Li says: ==================== net/smc: fix kernel panic caused by race of smc_sock This patchset fixes the race between smc_release triggered by close(2) and cdc_handle triggered by underlaying RDMA device. The race is caused because the smc_connection may been released before the pending tx CDC messages got its CQEs. In order to fix this, I add a counter to track how many pending WRs we have posted through the smc_connection, and only release the smc_connection after there is no pending WRs on the connection. The first patch prevents posting WR on a QP that is not in RTS state. This patch is needed because if we post WR on a QP that is not in RTS state, ib_post_send() may success but no CQE will return, and that will confuse the counter tracking the pending WRs. The second patch add a counter to track how many WRs were posted through the smc_connection, and don't reset the QP on link destroying to prevent leak of the counter. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
