per comment from Leon in rdma mailing list https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/31/312 : Please don't forget to remove user triggered WARN_ON. https://lwn.net/Articles/769365/ "Greg Kroah-Hartman raised the problem of core kernel API code that will use WARN_ON_ONCE() to complain about bad usage; that will not generate the desired result if WARN_ON_ONCE() is configured to crash the machine. He was told that the code should just call pr_warn() instead, and that the called function should return an error in such situations. It was generally agreed that any WARN_ON() or WARN_ON_ONCE() calls that can be triggered from user space need to be fixed." in addition harden rds_sendmsg to detect and overcome issues with invalid sg count and fail the sendmsg.

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. 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.
