From 263eec9b2a82e8697d064709414914b5b10ac538 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ursula Braun Date: Mon, 15 May 2017 17:33:37 +0200 Subject: smc: switch to usage of IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY Currently, SMC enables remote access to physical memory when a user has successfully configured and established an SMC-connection until ten minutes after the last SMC connection is closed. Because this is considered a security risk, drivers are supposed to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY in such a case. This patch changes the current SMC code to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY. This improves user awareness, but does not remove the security risk itself. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun Signed-off-by: David S.
