Original description The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/mad: Improve handling of timed out WRs of mad agent

Current timeout handler of mad agent acquires/releases mad_agent_priv
lock for every timed out WRs. This causes heavy locking contention
when higher no. of WRs are to be handled inside timeout handler.

This leads to softlockup with below trace in some use cases where
rdma-cm path is used to establish connection between peer nodes

Trace:
