Typically, when the CM sends a MAD it bumps a reference count on the associated cm_id. There are some exceptions, such as when the MAD is a direct response to a receive MAD. For example, the CM may generate an MRA in response to a duplicate REQ. But, in general, if a MAD may be sent as a result of the user invoking an API call (e.g. ib_send_cm_rep(), ib_send_cm_rtu(), etc.), a reference is taken on the cm_id. This reference is necessary if the MAD requires a response. The reference allows routing a response MAD back to the cm_id, or, if no response is received, allows updating the cm_id state to reflect the failure. For MADs which do not generate a response from the target, however, there's no need to hold a reference on the cm_id. Such MADs will not be retried by the MAD layer and their completions do not change the state of the cm_id. There are 2 internal calls used to allocate MADs which take a reference on the cm_id: cm_alloc_msg() and cm_alloc_priv_msg(). The latter calls the former. It turns out that all other places where cm_alloc_msg() is called are for MADs that do not generate a response from the target: sending an RTU, DREP, REJ, MRA, or SIDR REP. In all of these cases, there's no need to hold a reference on the cm_id. The benefit of dropping unneeded references is that it allows destruction of the cm_id to proceed immediately. Currently, the cm_destroy_id() call blocks as long as there's a reference held on the cm_id. Worse, is that cm_destroy_id() will send MADs, which it then needs to complete. Sending the MADs is beneficial, as they notify the peer that a connection is being destroyed. However, since the MADs hold a reference on the cm_id, they block destruction and cannot be retried. Move cm_id referencing from cm_alloc_msg() to cm_alloc_priv_msg(). The latter should hold a reference on the cm_id in all cases but one, which will be handled in a separate patch. cm_alloc_priv_msg() is used when sending a REQ, REP, DREQ, and SIDR REQ, all of which require a response. Also, merge common code into cm_alloc_priv_msg() and combine the freeing of all messages which do not need a response.

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 reStructuredText 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.
