Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
By switching to an XFS-backed export, I am able to reproduce the
ibcomp worker crash on my client with xfstests generic/013.
For the failing LISTXATTRS operation, xdr_inline_pages() is called
with page_len=12 and buflen=128.
- When ->send_request() is called, rpcrdma_marshal_req() does not
set up a Reply chunk because buflen is smaller than the inline
threshold. Thus rpcrdma_convert_iovs() does not get invoked at
all and the transport's XDRBUF_SPARSE_PAGES logic is not invoked
on the receive buffer.
- During reply processing, rpcrdma_inline_fixup() tries to copy
received data into rq_rcv_buf->pages because page_len is positive.
But there are no receive pages because rpcrdma_marshal_req() never
allocated them.
The result is that the ibcomp worker faults and dies. Sometimes that
causes a visible crash, and sometimes it results in a transport hang
without other symptoms.
RPC/RDMA's XDRBUF_SPARSE_PAGES support is not entirely correct, and
should eventually be fixed or replaced. However, my preference is
that upper-layer operations should explicitly allocate their receive
buffers (using GFP_KERNEL) when possible, rather than relying on
XDRBUF_SPARSE_PAGES.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
