IB/ipath: fix null deref during rdma ops
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The problem was that node A's sending thread, which handles sending RDMA
read response data, would write the trigger word, the last packet would
be sent, node B would send a new RDMA read request, node A's interrupt
handler would initialize s_rdma_sge, then node A's sending thread would
update s_rdma_sge.  This didn't happen very often naturally but was more
frequent with 1 byte RDMA reads.  Rather than adding more locking or
increasing the QP structure size and copying sge data, I modified the
copy routine to update the pointers before writing the trigger word to
avoid the update race.
