HiP08 RoCE hardware lacks ability(a known hardware problem) to flush outstanding WQEs if QP state gets into errored mode for some reason. To overcome this hardware problem and as a workaround, when QP is detected to be in errored state during various legs like post send, post receive etc[1], flush needs to be performed from the driver. The earlier patch[1] sent to solve the hardware limitation explained in the cover-letter had a bug in the software flushing leg. It acquired mutex while modifying QP state to errored state and while conveying it to the hardware using the mailbox. This caused leg to sleep while holding spin-lock and caused crash. Suggested Solution: we have proposed to defer the flushing of the QP in the Errored state using the workqueue to get around with the limitation of our hardware. This patch specifically adds the calls to the flush handler from where parts of the code like post_send/post_recv etc. when the QP state gets into the errored mode.

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.
