This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled RDMA/siw: Add sendpage_ok() check to disable MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rdma-siw-add-sendpage_ok-check-to-disable-msg_splice.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 0cd25eff2668797c78098187dd616b6e300701bf Author: Showrya M N <showrya@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Oct 7 18:28:36 2024 +0530 RDMA/siw: Add sendpage_ok() check to disable MSG_SPLICE_PAGES [ Upstream commit 4e1e3dd88a4cedd5ccc1a3fc3d71e03b70a7a791 ] While running ISER over SIW, the initiator machine encounters a warning from skb_splice_from_iter() indicating that a slab page is being used in send_page. To address this, it is better to add a sendpage_ok() check within the driver itself, and if it returns 0, then MSG_SPLICE_PAGES flag should be disabled before entering the network stack.
