The value of mr->ndescs greater than mr->max_descs is set in the function mlx5_ib_sg_to_klms() if sg_nents is greater than mr->max_descs. This is an invalid value and it causes the following error when registering mr: mlx5_0:dump_cqe:276:(pid 193): dump error cqe 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000030: 00 00 00 00 0f 00 78 06 25 00 00 8b 08 1e 8f d3 Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 4.5 Fixes: b005d3164713 ("mlx5: Add arbitrary sg list support") Signed-off-by: Sergey Gorenko <sergeygo@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Laurence Oberman <loberman@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leon@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mr.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mr.c +++ b/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mr.c @@ -1813,7 +1813,6 @@ mlx5_ib_sg_to_klms(struct mlx5_ib_mr *mr mr->ibmr.iova = sg_dma_address(sg) + sg_offset; mr->ibmr.length = 0; - mr->ndescs = sg_nents; for_each_sg(sgl, sg, sg_nents, i) { if (unlikely(i >= mr->max_descs)) @@ -1825,6 +1824,7 @@ mlx5_ib_sg_to_klms(struct mlx5_ib_mr *mr sg_offset = 0; } + mr->ndescs = i; if (sg_offset_p) *sg_offset_p = sg_offset; Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from sergeygo@xxxxxxxxxxxx are queue-4.15/ib-mlx5-fix-incorrect-size-of-klms-in-the-memory-region.patch
