Roland: I agree with Yann, these patches need to go in, or the ODP patches reverted. > #ifdef CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING > - if (cmd.comp_mask & IB_USER_VERBS_EX_QUERY_DEVICE_ODP) { Absolutely, a query output should never depend on the input comp_mask. > - resp.odp_caps.general_caps = attr.odp_caps.general_caps; > - resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.rc_odp_caps = > - attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.rc_odp_caps; > - resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.uc_odp_caps = > - attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.uc_odp_caps; > - resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.ud_odp_caps = > - attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.ud_odp_caps; > - resp.comp_mask |= IB_USER_VERBS_EX_QUERY_DEVICE_ODP; > - } > + resp.odp_caps.general_caps = attr.odp_caps.general_caps; > + resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.rc_odp_caps = > + attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.rc_odp_caps; > + resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.uc_odp_caps = > + attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.uc_odp_caps; > + resp.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.ud_odp_caps = > + attr.odp_caps.per_transport_caps.ud_odp_caps; > #endif > + resp.comp_mask |= IB_USER_VERBS_EX_QUERY_DEVICE_ODP; Not sure about this - if 0 is a valid null answer for all the _caps then it is fine, and the comp_mask bit should just be removed as the size alone should be enough. This looks wrong however: > err = ib_copy_to_udata(ucore, &resp, sizeof(resp)); > if (err) > return err; > return 0; Why isn't this returning the filled structure size to userspace? This would seem to be very urgently wrong to me? Am I missing something? Patch 3 probably should gain: - return 0; + return resp_len; This patch looks like an improvement to me: Reviewed-By: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Jason -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
