[PATCH for-next V1 0/3] RoCE GID management fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Doug,

This patch mainly fixes teardown and error flow fixes that Jason and
you have found in the recent submitted patchset. As suggested by
Jason, I've split the cache removal process to cleanup and release.
Although I don't expect the HW vendor drivers to use the cache after
it was cleaned up, releasing it in the put function could prevent
possible use-after-free errors. Saying that, we could alternatively
review the vendors' usage more carefully and probably put the release
function as part of the unregister device flow.

In addition, this patch also fixes a small error flow issue that
was found by Dan Carpenter's kbuild system and a possible dead-lock.

Thanks,
Matan
