Subject: Re: [PATCH] nfs-rdma: Fix for FMR leaks
Hi Allen-
I reviewed and tested your patch. Comments inline below.

If ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list returns an error it bails out of the routine dropping the last ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr frmr region creating a memory leak. Added code to dereg the last frmr if ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list fails.

However, in rpcrdma_buffer_create while the rb_mws list is being built if one of the MR allocation requests fail after some MR's have been allocated on the rb_mws list the routine never gets to create any rb_send_bufs but instead jumps to the rpcrdma_buffer_destroy routine which will never free the MR's on rb_mws

After the kernel cleaned up the resources it had allocated for the Nth connection we noticed that FMR's had been leaked due to the coding error described above.

This clears “rc,” wiping the error returned by ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list().
Then rpcrdma_buffer_create() returns zero, even though it failed, and xprtrdma thinks the
transport is set up and ready for use. Panic.
I think you can safely ignore the return code from ib_dereg_mr() here.

This line is broken: the “@@“ should start on the next line. Some kind of e-mail snafu?
