When an RNIC with
node_guid
0 is present,rdma_resolve_addr
succeeds withADDR_RESOLVED
but subsequent device initialization can fail. This occurs becauseucma_query_addr
anducma_query_route
skip device initialization when the kernel returns a zeronode_guid
, leading to NULL pointer access inucma_process_addr_resolved
.Add explicit
NULL
checks forid->verbs
afterucma_query_addr
anducma_query_route
calls. ReturnENODEV
error if device initialization fails, ensuring proper error propagation instead of crashes.Note:
ucma_query_addr
must still return success in this case as it's used for probingAF_IB
support, which intentionally skips device initialization.This is easily reproducible with this RNIC configuration and C code:
When use the original librdmacm:
