The normal mechanism that invalidates and unmaps MRs is frwr_unmap_async(). frwr_unmap_sync() is used only when an RPC Reply bearing Write or Reply chunks has been lost (ie, almost never). Coverity found that after commit9a301cafc8("xprtrdma: Move fr_linv_done field to struct rpcrdma_mr"), the while() loop in frwr_unmap_sync() exits only once @mr is NULL, unconditionally causing subsequent dereferences of @mr to Oops. I've tested this fix by creating a client that skips invoking frwr_unmap_async() when RPC Replies complete. That forces all invalidation tasks to fall upon frwr_unmap_sync(). Simple workloads with this fix applied to the adulterated client work as designed.

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.
