The following code fails to allocate a buffer for the
tail address that the hardware DMAs into when the user
context DMA_RTAIL is set.
if (HFI1_CAP_KGET_MASK(rcd->flags, DMA_RTAIL)) {
rcd->rcvhdrtail_kvaddr = dma_zalloc_coherent(
&dd->pcidev->dev, PAGE_SIZE, &dma_hdrqtail,
gfp_flags);
if (!rcd->rcvhdrtail_kvaddr)
goto bail_free;
rcd->rcvhdrqtailaddr_dma = dma_hdrqtail;
}
So the rcvhdrtail_kvaddr would then be NULL.
The mmap logic fails to check for a NULL rcvhdrtail_kvaddr.
The fix is to test for both user and kernel DMA_TAIL options
during the allocation as well as testing for a NULL
rcvhdrtail_kvaddr during the mmap processing.
Additionally, all downstream testing of the capmask for DMA_RTAIL
have been eliminated in favor of testing rcvhdrtail_kvaddr.

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.
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.
