Allowing userspace to invoke these commands is probably going to crash these drivers as they are not tested and not expecting to use them on a user object. For example pvrdma touches cq->ring_state which is not initialized for user QPs. These commands are effected: - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_REQ_NOTIFY_CQ is ibv_cmd_req_notify_cq() in rdma-core, only hfi1, ipath and rxe calls it. - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_POLL_CQ is ibv_cmd_poll_cq() in rdma-core, only ipath and hfi1 calls it. - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_POST_SEND/RECV is ibv_cmd_post_send/recv() in rdma-core, only ipath and hfi1 call them. - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_POST_SRQ_RECV is ibv_cmd_post_srq_recv() in rdma-core, only ipath and hfi1 calls it. - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_PEEK_CQ isn't even implemented anywhere - IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_CREATE/DESTROY_AH is ibv_cmd_create/destroy_ah() in rdma-core, only bnxt_re, efa, hfi1, ipath, mlx5, orcrdma, and rxe call it.

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.
