Description Guy Streeter 2010-11-15 21:02:33 UTC

Customer has a repeatable panic in infinband code. In cm_work_handler (the one in cm.c, not iwcm.c) the cm_work structure is retrieved from the work_struct, and the attempt to dereference its mad_recv_wc pointer causes the crash, because the pointer has been incremented by one.

vmcores are on megatron.gsslab.rdu.redhat.com
in
/cores/20101108125468/work
and
/cores/20101108125467/work

Red Hat would like to thank Jens Kuehnel for reporting this issue.
