In almost all cases rdma_accept() is called under the handler_mutex by ULPs from their handler callbacks. The one exception was ucma which did not get the handler_mutex. To improve the understand-ability of the locking scheme obtain the mutex for ucma as well. This improves how ucma works by allowing it to directly use handler_mutex for some of its internal locking against the handler callbacks intead of the global file->mut lock. There does not seem to be a serious bug here, other than a DISCONNECT event can be delivered concurrently with accept succeeding.

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.
