5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 73964c1d07c054376f1b32a62548571795159148 ] It is possible that the host connected and saw a cm established event and started sending nvme capsules on the qp, however the ctrl did not yet see an established event. This is why the rsp_wait_list exists (for async handling of these cmds, we move them to a pending list). Furthermore, it is possible that the ctrl cm times out, resulting in a connect-error cm event. in this case we hit a bad deref [1] because in nvmet_rdma_free_rsps we assume that all the responses are in the free list. We are freeing the cmds array anyways, so don't even bother to remove the rsp from the free_list. It is also guaranteed that we are not racing anything when we are releasing the queue so no other context accessing this array should be running.
