Upon successful revoke,\nwe set umem_odp->private which points to that MR to NULL, preventing any\nfurther invalidation attempts on its lkey.\n\n[1] From dmesg:\n\n   infiniband rocep8s0f0: dump_cqe:277:(pid 0): WC error: 6, Message: memory bind operation error\n   cqe_dump: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00\n   cqe_dump: 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00\n   cqe_dump: 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00\n   cqe_dump: 00000030: 00 00 00 00 08 00 78 06 25 00 11 b9 00 0e dd d2\n\n   WARNING: CPU: 15 PID: 1506 at drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/umr.c:394 mlx5r_umr_post_send_wait+0x15a/0x2b0 [mlx5_ib]\n   Modules linked in: ip6table_mangle ip6table_natip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_mangle xt_conntrack xt_MASQUERADE nf_conntrack_netlink nfnetlink xt_addrtype iptable_nat nf_nat br_netfilter rpcsec_gss_krb5 auth_rpcgss oid_registry overlay rpcrdma rdma_ucm ib_iser libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi rdma_cm iw_cm ib_umad ib_ipoib ib_cm mlx5_ib ib_uverbs ib_core fuse mlx5_core\n   CPU: 15 UID: 0 PID: 1506 Comm: ibv_rc_pingpong Not tainted 6.12.0-rc7+ #1626\n   Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-0-gf21b5a4aeb02-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014\n   RIP: 0010:mlx5r_umr_post_send_wait+0x15a/0x2b0 [mlx5_ib]\n   [..]\n   Call Trace:\n   <TASK>\n   mlx5r_umr_update_xlt+0x23c/0x3e0 [mlx5_ib]\n   mlx5_ib_invalidate_range+0x2e1/0x330 [mlx5_ib]\n   __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start+0x1e1/0x240\n   zap_page_range_single+0xf1/0x1a0\n   madvise_vma_behavior+0x677/0x6e0\n   do_madvise+0x1a2/0x4b0\n   __x64_sys_madvise+0x25/0x30\n   do_syscall_64+0x6b/0x140\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":4.7},"cwes":["CWE-362"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5297f5ddffef47b94172ab0d3d62270002a3dcc1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/63126215de7beebb662fcef7c7558c795000c904","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/abb604a1a9c87255c7a6f3b784410a9707baf467","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b13d32786acabf70a7b04ed24b7468fc3c82977c"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-30T13:47:47.119061695+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-21732","score":0.00138,"percentile":0.03159,"date":"2026-10-30"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
