commitaddb8a6559upstream. The commit cited below checked that the port numbers provided in the primary and alt AVs are legal. That is sufficient to prevent a kernel panic. However, it is not sufficient for correct operation. In Linux, AVs (both primary and alt) must be completely self-described. We do not accept an AV from userspace without an embedded port number. (This has been the case since kernel 3.14 commitdbf727de74("IB/core: Use GID table in AH creation and dmac resolution")). For the primary AV, this embedded port number must match the port number specified with IB_QP_PORT. We also expect the port number embedded in the alt AV to match the alt_port_num value passed by the userspace driver in the modify_qp command base structure. Add these checks to modify_qp.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
