Subject: [PATCH net] net/smc: fix listen processing for SMC-Rv2

From: liuyacan <[email protected]>

In the process of checking whether RDMAv2 is available, the current
implementation first sets ini->smcrv2.ib_dev_v2, and then allocates
smc buf desc, but the latter may fail. Unfortunately, the caller
will only check the former. In this case, a NULL pointer reference
will occur in smc_clc_send_confirm_accept() when accessing
conn->rmb_desc.

This patch does two things:
1. Use the return code to determine whether V2 is available.
2. If the return code is NODEV, continue to check whether V1 is
available.

I am not happy with this patch. You are right that this is a problem,
but the fix should be much simpler: set ini->smcrv2.ib_dev_v2 = NULL in
smc_find_rdma_v2_device_serv() after the not_found label, just like it is
done in a similar way for the ISM device in smc_find_ism_v1_device_serv().

Your patch changes many more things, and beside that you eliminated the calls
to smc_find_ism_store_rc() completely, which is not correct.

Since your patch was already applied (btw. 3:20 hours after you submitted it),
please revert it and resend. Thank you.

I also have considered this way, one question is that do we need to do more roll
back work before V1 check?

Specifically, In smc_find_rdma_v2_device_serv(), there are the following steps:

1. smc_listen_rdma_init()
1.1 smc_conn_create()
1.2 smc_buf_create() --> may fail
2. smc_listen_rdma_reg() --> may fail

When later steps fail, Do we need to roll back previous steps?
Thank you.

That is a good question and I think that is a different problem for another patch.
smc_listen_rdma_init() maybe should call smc_conn_abort() similar to what smc_listen_ism_init()
does in this situation. And when smc_listen_rdma_reg() fails ... hmm we need to think about this.

We will also discuss this here in our team.

Ok, I will revert this patch and resend a simpler one. Thank you.
