Would this generate a completion event even if no completion entries are queued?
I guess it can if the QP has no WRs posted at all.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but this sounds like a bandaid for broken applications, and a bandaid that other hardware drivers won't implement.
I'm not sure other drivers have this issue. For example, when a mlx or mthca QP moves out of RTS, does the HW flush the pending recv WRs? For Chelsio devices, the provider driver/library must handle this.
This logic is needed to adhere to the iwarp verbs spec which states that when the QP moves out of RTS, all WRs that are pending get completed with FLUSH status. For T3/T4 devices, this is all done in software. For user mode, the provider library has to flush the QP (IE the kernel doesn't own the queue state).
The idea is that if an application is expecting a CQ event notification when the QP moves out of RTS, and there are only recv wrs posted, then the T4 (and T3 does this too) driver must post this CQ notification, in addition to marking the CQ as "in error" which means some QP bound to this CQ needs flushing. Then when the app wakes up and polls the CQ, the libcxgb4 code will flush the QPs in error and thus CQEs will be inserted into the CQ. We have seen certain applications that rely on this event to discover that a QP has moved out of RTS. IE they don't look at async QP events nor RDMACM events.

In that case, its possible for user application to get blocked in ibv_get_cq_event. To resolve this, call the cq's comp_handler to unblock any read from ibv_get_cq_event.
