1) New index member of struct rxe_queue was introduced but not zeroed so the initial value of index may be random. 2) The current index is not masked off to index_mask. In this case producer_addr() and consumer_addr() will get an invalid address by the random index and then accessing the invalid address triggers the following panic: "BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff9ae2c07a1414" Fix the issue by using kzalloc() to zero out index member.

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.
