Li is correct that the only way mr could be NULL is if qp->resp.mr == NULL. So the
What I am concerned about is if "WARN_ON(!mr);" should be added or not.
IMO, if the root cause remains unclear, this should be a problem.
Currently this problem is not fixed. It is useless to send a debug
statement to the maillist.

As per Bob's explanation,  no 'WARN_ON(!mr)' is needed.
I will update the patch soon.

'if (mr)' is not needed if that is the case. The read_reply subroutine is reached
from a new rdma read operation after going through check_rkey or from a previous
rdma read operations from get_req if qp->resp.res != NULL or from a duplicate request
where the previous responder resource is found. In all these cases the mr is set.
Initially in check_rkey where if it can't find the mr it causes an RKEY_VIOLATION.
Thereafter the rkey is stored in the responder resources and looked up for each
packet to get an mr or cause an RKEY_VIOLATION. So the mr can't be NULL. I think
you can leave out the WARN and just drop the if (mr).
Very thanks for your explanation

Thanks
