Well, I suppose Jason is mentioning "blktests srp/002 hang".
cf. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/dsg6rd66tyiei32zaxs6ddv5ebefr5vtxjwz6d2ewqrcwisogl@ge7jzan7dg5u/T/

It is likely to be a timing issue. Bob reported that "siw hangs with the debug kernel",
so the hang looks not specific to rxe.
cf. https://lore.kernel.org/all/53ede78a-f73d-44cd-a555-f8ff36bd9c55@xxxxxxx/T/
I think we need to decide whether to continue to block patches to rxe since nobody has successfully fixed the issue.


There is another issue that causes kernel panic.
[bug report][bisected] rdma_rxe: blktests srp lead kernel panic with 64k page size
cf. https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHj4cs9XRqE25jyVw9rj9YugffLn5+f=1znaBEnu1usLOciD+g@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/

Zhijian has submitted patches to fix this, and he got some comments.
It looks he is involved in CXL driver intensively these days.
I guess he is still working on it.

Yeah, I can revise the patch anytime.

Rxe can share the same tests with mlx5.
I added test cases for Write, Read and Atomic operations with ODP,
and we can add more tests if there are any suggestions.
Cf. https://github.com/linux-rdma/rdma-core/blob/master/tests/test_odp.py

Thanks,
