Hello

I'm trying (failing) to get iSER working. After rebooting with some settings saved in targetcli, I got an endless stream of messages like this:

[  192.701299] isert: isert_setup_id: rdma_bind_addr() failed: -19
[  192.702733] isert: isert_setup_id: rdma_bind_addr() failed: -19
[  192.704021] isert: isert_setup_id: rdma_bind_addr() failed: -19
[  192.705458] isert: isert_setup_id: rdma_bind_addr() failed: -19
[  192.706979] isert: isert_setup_id: rdma_bind_addr() failed: -19

I tried deleting everything from targetcli, but the flood would not stop. The ib_isert module did not unload. When rebooting I got a "Recursive Fault" with a stacktrace inside configfs.

I hope this is enough information to fix this bug. I assumed the stacktrace would be saved to the log so I didn't write it down, and I haven't been able to retrace all the wrong stuff I did trying to make iSER work.

You get -ENODEV errors because you don't have an RDMA device. This is probably due to the fact that the mlx5_ib (or mlx4_ib, depending on your device) is not loaded.

Can you try loading mlx[4|5]_ib module before you enable iser on a network portal?

I do see that mlx5 and mlx4 are requesting the mlx_ib module at probe time, I wander how that didn't happen on your system..

I didn't see a endless loop of this error? can you share your targetcli json?

Would it be possible to try with upstream kernel and report what you are seeing?

Hello, thank you very much for your help. I'm very sorry but I think I've made too many changes to my system to recreate the problem. I tried recreating my targtetcli config and downgrading linux+userspace+firmware to the versions I used when it broke, but never got this problem again :(
