qp-_is_user is always false in this function (flow starts from
rxe_post_send_kernel) so this line is a dead code
In fact, this patch seems to add a serious bug when it uses
copy_from_user() from a non user pointer.
Do you agree?
I agree.
So, it is fine to me to remove this line, as you said in the former email:
Second, I think that there is no flow that leads to this function
when qp->is user is true so maybe the correct action is to remove this
line completely
if (qp->is_user&& copy_from_user(p, (__user void *)
