QP destroy is synchronous and waits for its refcnt to be decremented in irdma_cm_node_free_cb (for iWARP) which fires after the RCU grace period elapses. Applications running a large number of connections are exposed to high wait times on destroy QP for events like SIGABORT. The long poll for this wait time is the firing of the call_rcu callback during a CM node destroy which can be slow. It holds the QP reference count and blocks the destroy QP from completing. call_rcu only needs to make sure that list walkers have a reference to the cm_node object before freeing it and thus need to wait for grace period elapse. The rest of the connection teardown in irdma_cm_node_free_cb is moved out of the grace period wait in irdma_destroy_connection. Also, replace call_rcu with a simple kfree_rcu as it just needs to do a kfree on the cm_node Fixes: 146b9756f14c ("RDMA/irdma: Add connection manager") Signed-off-by: Shiraz Saleem <shiraz.saleem@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/cm.c | 10 ++++------ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/cm.c b/drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/cm.c index d185f3a0..656baa3 100644 --- a/drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/cm.c +++ b/drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/cm.c @@ -2308,10 +2308,8 @@ static void irdma_cm_free_ah(struct irdma_cm_node *cm_node) return NULL; } -static void irdma_cm_node_free_cb(struct rcu_head *rcu_head) +static void irdma_destroy_connection(struct irdma_cm_node *cm_node) { - struct irdma_cm_node *cm_node = - container_of(rcu_head, struct irdma_cm_node, rcu_head); struct irdma_cm_core *cm_core = cm_node->cm_core; struct irdma_qp *iwqp; struct irdma_cm_info nfo; @@ -2359,7 +2357,6 @@ static void irdma_cm_node_free_cb(struct rcu_head *rcu_head) } cm_core->cm_free_ah(cm_node); - kfree(cm_node); } /** @@ -2387,8 +2384,9 @@ void irdma_rem_ref_cm_node(struct irdma_cm_node *cm_node) spin_unlock_irqrestore(&cm_core->ht_lock, flags); - /* wait for all list walkers to exit their grace period */ - call_rcu(&cm_node->rcu_head, irdma_cm_node_free_cb); + irdma_destroy_connection(cm_node); + + kfree_rcu(cm_node, rcu_head); } /** -- 1.8.3.1
