[PATCH 3.16 214/305] IB/mlx5: Fix post send fence logic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.16.37-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eli Cohen <eli@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c9b254955b9f8814966f5dabd34c39d0e0a2b437 upstream.

If the caller specified IB_SEND_FENCE in the send flags of the work
request and no previous work request stated that the successive one
should be fenced, the work request would be executed without a fence.
This could result in RDMA read or atomic operations failure due to a MR
being invalidated. Fix this by adding the mlx5 enumeration for fencing
RDMA/atomic operations and fix the logic to apply this.

Fixes: e126ba97dba9 ('mlx5: Add driver for Mellanox Connect-IB adapters')
