Each user_context receives a separate dpi value and thus a different address on the doorbell bar. The qedr_mmap function needs to validate the address and map the doorbell bar accordingly. The current implementation always checked against dpi=0 doorbell range leading to a wrong mapping for doorbell bar. (It entered an else case that mapped the address differently). qedr_mmap should only be used for doorbells, so the else was actually wrong in the first place. This only has an affect on arm architecture and not an issue on a x86 based architecture. This lead to doorbells not occurring on arm based systems and left applications that use more than one dpi (or several applications run simultaneously ) to hang.

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.
