Subject: 3.17 kernel crash while loading IPoIB
Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2014 05:15:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <637AD4DF2E595346BAB0DF8C46F3A2B003291F06@BGSMSX101.gar.corp.intel.com> (raw)

Hello:

I am facing an issue wherein kernel 3.17 crashes while loading IPoIB module. I guess the issue discussed in this thread (https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg20963.html) is similar.

We were able to reproduce the issue with RC6 also. Here are the steps I followed:

I compiled and installed 3.17 kernel on top of RHEL 6.5. 
Then I changed rdma.conf to not load IPoIB (If I don't do this, the kernel crashes while booting and starting RDMA service.)
After the server comes up, I just did "modprobe ib_ipoib" and kernel crashes.
Please see below the kernel back trace.

Seeing the announcement, it looks like RC6 will be the last RC for 3.17 kernel. Will the release happen with this issue? Is there any workaround available for this issue?
I am not sure what mechanism/process is used to report issue to kernel community.

Regards
Karun
