[PATCH 4.16 19/52] RDMA/ucma: Allow resolving address w/o specifying source address

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

 



4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Roland Dreier <roland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 09abfe7b5b2f442a85f4c4d59ecf582ad76088d7 upstream.

The RDMA CM will select a source device and address by consulting
the routing table if no source address is passed into
rdma_resolve_address().  Userspace will ask for this by passing an
all-zero source address in the RESOLVE_IP command.  Unfortunately
the new check for non-zero address size rejects this with EINVAL,
which breaks valid userspace applications.

Fix this by explicitly allowing a zero address family for the source.
