Revision bf74c7479ef47652005a2418eeb0d867451690da authored by Michael S. Tsirkin on 26 July 2006, 13:02:53 UTC, committed by Roland Dreier on 03 August 2006, 16:44:21 UTC
mthca_array_clear() does not clear the slot if the used count is positive. This leads to crashes in mthca_qp_event() since that uses mthca_array_get() to check that the qp is valid.

This is a brief list of all the files in ./linux/Documentation and what
they contain. If you add a documentation file, please list it here in
alphabetical order as well, or risk being hunted down like a rabid dog.
Please try and keep the descriptions small enough to fit on one line.
Thanks -- Paul G.
