Bug ID: 1256
Summary: drivers/common/mlx5: mlx5_malloc() called on invalid
socket ID when global MR cache is full and
rte_extmem_* API is used
Product: DPDK
Version: 21.11
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: other
Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
Reporter: baciumariuscristian@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
Overview:
Attempt to allocate a new mlx5 MR entry when global Btree cache is full end=
s up
calling mlx5_malloc with the EXTERNAL_HEAP_MIN_SOCKET_ID socket ID, given t=
hat
no external-memory heap has been created. Instead the rte_extmem_* API is u=
sed.
Steps to reproduce:
- start a primary DPDK process, on a NIC compatible with mlx5_core driver;
- use rte_extmem_register() to register >512 pages of 4KB;
- use rte_dev_dma_map() to dma-map each page;
- rte_eth_tx_burst() an mbuf with an external buffer from the last page of =
the
registered memory (or a page above index 512). (a virtual address that will=
not
be found in the global Btree cache);
Actual results:
mlx5_malloc in mlx5_mr_create_primary() fails with "Unable to allocate memo=
ry
for a new MR". From this point forward, packets never reach the other end.
Expected results:
MR entries should be successfully retrieved from backup or created when cac=
he
becomes full; calling mlx5_malloc() on external heap socket should not be
possible when rte_extmem_* API is used. As it is stated in the DPDK
documentation[1], "Memory added this way will not be available for any regu=
lar
DPDK allocators".
