Hi, Leon if carried out unload operation When rdma app running, the hardware is too late to release and remain in hardware. Under these circumstances, it maybe happen error if loaded hns driver and run app again. In order to reslove it, the hardware adds a function clear function to stop this function and clear the residual hardware resources in the function. Thanks.
