If qeth_qdio_output_handler() detects that a transmit requires async
completion, it replaces the pending buffer's metadata object
(qeth_qdio_out_buffer) so that this queue buffer can be re-used while
the data is pending completion.
Later when the CQ indicates async completion of such a metadata object,
qeth_qdio_cq_handler() tries to free any data associated with this
object (since HW has now completed the transfer). By calling
qeth_clear_output_buffer(), it erronously operates on the queue buffer
that _previously_ belonged to this transfer ... but which has been
potentially re-used several times by now.
This results in double-free's of the buffer's data, and failing
transmits as the buffer descriptor is scrubbed in mid-air.
The correct way of handling this situation is to
1. scrub the queue buffer when it is prepared for re-use, and
2. later obtain the data addresses from the async-completion notifier
(ie. the AOB), instead of the queue buffer.
All this only affects qeth devices used for af_iucv HiperTransport.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
