Can you please explain/share the reproduction steps for generating above call trace? Hi Parav! This bug was spotted in the production on a small number of machines. They were running a 6.6-based kernel (with no changes around this code). I don't have a reproducer (and there is no simple way for me to reproduce the problem), but I've several core dumps and from inspecting them it was clear that a ib_device pointer obtained in hw_stat_device_show() was wrong. At the same time the ib_pointer obtained in the way rdma_device_to_ibdev() works was correct. Thanks!
