Subject: [PATCH v3 02/15] NTB: ntb_transport: Start TX offload thread after queue setup
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 00:25:37 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928152550.3354675-3-den@valinux.co.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928152550.3354675-1-den@valinux.co.jp>

ntb_transport_create_queue() starts the per-QP TX offload thread before
DMA mappings and queue entries are allocated. If later setup fails, the
error path returns the QP to the free bitmap without stopping the
thread. A retry can then reinitialize its waitqueue while the old thread
is still waiting on it.

Start the thread after queue setup.
