Hmm ... I haven't seen any hangs yet with the siw driver.
I was on Ubuntu 6-9 months ago. Currently I don't see hangs on either.
As mentioned above at the moment Ubuntu is failing rarely. But it used to fail reliably (srp/002 about 75% of the time and srp/011 about 99% of the time.) There haven't been any changes to rxe to explain this.
I think that Zhu mentioned commit 9b4b7c1f9f54 ("RDMA/rxe: Add workqueue
support for rxe tasks")?
That change happened well before the failures went away. I was seeing failures at the same rate with tasklets
and wqs. But after updating Ubuntu and the kernel at some point they all went away.
I made tests on the latest Ubuntu with the latest kernel without the
commit 9b4b7c1f9f54 ("RDMA/rxe: Add workqueue support for rxe tasks").
The latest kernel is v6.6-rc2, the commit 9b4b7c1f9f54 ("RDMA/rxe: Add
workqueue support for rxe tasks") is reverted.
I made blktest tests for about 30 times, this problem does not occur.
So I confirm that without this commit, this hang problem does not
occur on Ubuntu without the commit 9b4b7c1f9f54 ("RDMA/rxe: Add
workqueue support for rxe tasks").

Thanks,
Bart.
This commit is very important for several reasons. It is needed for the ODP implementation
that is in the works from Daisuke Matsuda and also for QP scaling of performance. The work
queue implementation scales well with increasing qp number while the tasklet implementation
does not. This is critical for the drivers use in large scale storage applications. So, if
there is a bug in the work queue implementation it needs to be fixed not reverted.
I am still hoping that someone will diagnose what is causing the ULPs to hang in terms of
something missing causing it to wait.
Hi, Bob
You submitted this commit 9b4b7c1f9f54 ("RDMA/rxe: Add workqueue support
for rxe tasks").
You should be very familiar with this commit.
And this commit causes regression.
So you should delved into the source code to find the root cause, then
fix it.
Jason && Leon, please comment on this.
Best Regards,
Zhu Yanjun
