Yes, that's true

Actually, i have drafted a new version last week when you first time pointed out this.
https://github.com/zhijianli88/linux/commit/a368d821b163f74836d527638625d414c7a62d00#diff-1b675c68d2f5f664abefea05cbf415f6307c9920b31a13bed41105c4a84e0259R641
the latest code is like:
    if (sel == IB_EXT_SEL_MR_RANGE) {
        start = qp->resp.va;
        length = qp->resp.length;
    } else { /* sel == IB_EXT_SEL_MR_WHOLE */
        start = mr->cur_map_set->iova;
        length = mr->cur_map_set->length;
    }

mr->cur_map_set[0]->addr is a virtual address in kernel space.

nvdimm_flush_iova() will accept a user space address(alloc(), mmap() by applications),
this address could be transited to a kernel virtual address by lookup_iova() where it
will refer to mr->cur_map_set[n]->addr.

So i think we should use qp->resp.va and mr->cur_map_set->iova that are both user
space address.



> I can't find the cur_map_set in any patch.
cur_map_set will be filled in rxe_mr_init_user(),
rxe_mr_init_user()
 -> ib_umem_get()
   -> pin_user_pages_fast()
 -> update cur_map_set


BTW: some of you all comments are already addressed in
https://github.com/zhijianli88/linux/tree/rdma-flush
and it may forced update irregularly.


Thanks
