Hi Arnd,
I'm wondering what the top commit is that you where compiling,
I guess that's before the 'smb: client: make use of smbdirect.ko'
commit.
As we have this at the end of the patchset in ksmbd-for-next:
fs/smb/common/smbdirect/Kconfig
config SMB_COMMON_SMBDIRECT
def_tristate n
depends on INFINIBAND && INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS
depends on m || INFINIBAND != m
select SG_POOL
I'll try to change the patches to have your hunk
in the temporary phase in the patchset where we use
smbdirect_all_c_files, as it's gone at the end of
the patchset.
Thanks!

The smbdirect code now uses the scatter/gather pool interface. This
causes a build failure when the interface is disabled:
In file included from fs/smb/client/../common/smbdirect/smbdirect_all_c_files.c:21,
from fs/smb/client/smbdirect.c:176:
fs/smb/client/../common/smbdirect/smbdirect_rw.c: In function 'smbdirect_connection_rw_io_free':
fs/smb/client/../common/smbdirect/smbdirect_rw.c:76:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'sg_free_table_chained' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
76 | sg_free_table_chained(&msg->sgt, SG_CHUNK_SIZE);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The other users of this interface all 'select SG_POOL', so so the same
here.
Fixes: 5ab0987c492e ("smb: smbdirect: introduce smbdirect_rw.c with server rw code")

I'm squashing this into the
'smb: client: include smbdirect_all_c_files.c' commit
and the 'smb: client: make use of smbdirect.ko' commit
will remove it again.
