Hello,

We have been hitting an error when running IO over our nvme-of setup, using the mlx5 driver and we are wondering if anyone has seen anything similar/has any suggestions.

Both initiator and target are AMD EPYC 7502 machines connected over RDMA using a Mellanox MT28908. Target has 12 NVMe SSDs which are exposed as a single NVMe fabrics device, one physical SSD per namespace.

When running an fio job targeting directly the fabrics devices (no filesystem, see script at the end), within a minute or so we start seeing errors like this:

Occasionally, we've seen the following stack trace:

FWIW this is indicative the scatterlist passed to dma_unmap_sg_attrs() was wrong - specifically it looks like an attempt to unmap a region that's already unmapped (or was never mapped in the first place). Whatever race or data corruption issue is causing that is almost certainly happening much earlier, since the IO_PAGE_FAULT logs further imply that either some pages have been spuriously unmapped while the device was still accessing them, or some DMA address in the scatterlist was already bogus by the time it was handed off to the device.

Robin.

We first saw this on a 5.13 kernel but could reproduce with 5.17-rc2.

We found a possibly related bug report [1] that suggested disabling the IOMMU could help, but even after I disabled it (amd_iommu=off iommu=off) I still get errors (nvme IO timeouts). Another thread from 2016[2] suggested that disabling some kernel debug options could workaround the "local protection error" but that didn't help either.

As far as I can tell, the disks are fine, as running the same fio job targeting the real physical devices works fine.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
Martin
