Switchtec does not support setting multiple MWs simultaneously. The driver takes a hardware lock to ensure that two peers are not doing this simultaneously and it fails if someone else takes the lock. In most cases, this is fine as clients only setup the MWs once on one side of the link. However, there's a race condition when a re-initialization is caused by a link event. The driver will re-setup the shared memory window asynchronously and this races with the client setting up it's memory windows on the link up event. To fix this we ensure do the entire initialization in a work queue and signal the client once it's done.

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.
