Re-design of the iWARP CM related objects reference counting and
synchronization methods, to ensure operations are synchronized correctly
and that memory allocated for "ep" is properly released. Also makes sure
QP memory is not released before ep is finished accessing it.
Where as the QP object is created/destroyed by external operations, the ep
is created/destroyed by internal operations and represents the tcp
connection associated with the QP.
QP destruction flow:
- needs to wait for ep establishment to complete (either successfully or
with error)
- needs to wait for ep disconnect to be fully posted to avoid a race
condition of disconnect being called after reset.
- both the operations above don't always happen, so we use atomic flags to
indicate whether the qp destruction flow needs to wait for these
completions or not, if the destroy is called before these operations
began, the flows will check the flags and not execute them ( connect /
disconnect).
We use completion structure for waiting for the completions mentioned
above.
The QP refcnt was modified to kref object. The EP has a kref added to it
to handle additional worker thread accessing it.

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.
