I'm using CX5-LX device and have not seen any issues with it.

Would it be possible to retest with kmemleak?

Here is the device I used.

Network controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27500 Family [ConnectX-3]

The issue always can be reproduced with about 1000 time.

Another thing is I found one strange phenomenon from the log:

before the OOM occurred, most of the log are  about "adding queue", and
after the OOM occurred, most of the log are about "nvmet_rdma: freeing
queue".

seems the release work: "schedule_work(&queue->release_work);" not
executed
timely, not sure whether the OOM is caused by this reason.

Sagi,
The release function is placed in global workqueue. I'm not familiar
with NVMe design and I don't know all the details, but maybe the
proper way will
be to create special workqueue with MEM_RECLAIM flag to ensure the
progress?


Hi,

I was able to repro it in my lab with ConnectX3. added a dedicated
workqueue with high priority but the bug still happens.
if I add a "sleep 1" after echo 1
>/sys/block/nvme0n1/device/reset_controller the test pass. So there is
no leak IMO, but the allocation process is much faster than the
destruction of the resources.
In the initiator we don't wait for RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED event
after we call rdma_disconnect, and we try to connect immediatly again.
maybe we need to slow down the storm of connect requests from the
initiator somehow to let the target time to settle up.

Hi Sagi
Let's use this mail loop to track the OOM issue. :)

Thanks
Yi

Hi Yi,
I can't repro the OOM issue with 4.11-rc2 (don't know why actually).
which kernel are you using ?

Max.
