Please disregard this mail! I fixed a relayhost parameter in a lab machine and this queued mail was sent. My apologies.

RDMA_READ completions are kept on a separate queue from the general
I/O request queue. Since a separate lock is used to protect the RDMA_READ
completion queue, a race exists between the dto_tasklet and the
svc_rdma_recvfrom thread where the dto_tasklet sets the XPT_DATA
bit and adds I/O to the read-completion queue. Concurrently, the
recvfrom thread checks the generic queue, finds it empty and resets
the XPT_DATA bit. A subsequent svc_xprt_enqueue will fail to enqueue
the transport for I/O and cause the transport to "stall".

The fix is to protect both lists with the same lock and set the XPT_DATA
bit with this lock held.
Thanks.  Assuming this race has existed from the start (so it's not a
recent regression), and the consequences are no worse than a stall, I'm
inclined to queue this up for 2.6.32--but if I'm wrong about either of
those, we could try for 2.6.31 and/or stable.

Erp, cripes, sorry--only just noticed all this mail seems to have been
delayed a year!  OK....--b.

--b.
