Fix a CFQ crash in "for-2.6.33" branch of block tree
I think my previous patch introduced a bug which can lead to CFQ hitting BUG_ON(). The offending commit in for-2.6.33 branch is. commit 7667aa0630407bc07dc38dcc79d29cc0a65553c1 Author: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Date: Tue Dec 8 17:52:58 2009 -0500 cfq-iosched: Take care of corner cases of group losing share due to deletion While doing some stress testing on my box, I enountered following. login: [ 3165.148841] BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0x10000100 [ 3165.149821] Modules linked in: cfq_iosched dm_multipath qla2xxx igb scsi_transport_fc dm_snapshot [last unloaded: scsi_wait_scan] [ 3165.149821] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.32-block-for-33-merged-new #3 [ 3165.149821] Call Trace: [ 3165.149821] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8103fab8>] __schedule_bug+0x5c/0x60 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8103afd7>] ? __wake_up+0x44/0x4d [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8153a979>] schedule+0xe3/0x7bc [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8103a796>] ? cpumask_next+0x1d/0x1f [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffffa000b21d>] ? cfq_dispatch_requests+0x6ba/0x93e [cfq_iosched] [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff810422d8>] __cond_resched+0x2a/0x35 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffffa000b21d>] ? cfq_dispatch_requests+0x6ba/0x93e [cfq_iosched] [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8153b1ee>] _cond_resched+0x2c/0x37 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8100e2db>] is_valid_bugaddr+0x16/0x2f [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff811e4161>] report_bug+0x18/0xac [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8100f1fc>] die+0x39/0x63 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8153cde1>] do_trap+0x11a/0x129 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8100d470>] do_invalid_op+0x96/0x9f [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffffa000b21d>] ? cfq_dispatch_requests+0x6ba/0x93e [cfq_iosched] [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff81034b4d>] ? enqueue_task+0x5c/0x67 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8103ae83>] ? task_rq_unlock+0x11/0x13 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff81041aae>] ? try_to_wake_up+0x292/0x2a4 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8100c935>] invalid_op+0x15/0x20 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffffa000b21d>] ? cfq_dispatch_requests+0x6ba/0x93e [cfq_iosched] [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff810df5a6>] ? virt_to_head_page+0xe/0x2f [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff811d8c2a>] blk_peek_request+0x191/0x1a7 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff811e5b8d>] ? kobject_get+0x1a/0x21 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812c8d4c>] scsi_request_fn+0x82/0x3df [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff8110b2de>] ? bio_fs_destructor+0x15/0x17 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff810df5a6>] ? virt_to_head_page+0xe/0x2f [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff811d931f>] __blk_run_queue+0x42/0x71 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff811d9403>] blk_run_queue+0x26/0x3a [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812c8761>] scsi_run_queue+0x2de/0x375 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812b60ac>] ? put_device+0x17/0x19 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812c92d7>] scsi_next_command+0x3b/0x4b [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812c9b9f>] scsi_io_completion+0x1c9/0x3f5 [ 3165.149821] [<ffffffff812c3c36>] scsi_finish_command+0xb5/0xbe I think I have hit following BUG_ON() in cfq_dispatch_request(). BUG_ON(RB_EMPTY_ROOT(&cfqq->sort_list)); Please find attached the patch to fix it. I have done some stress testing with it and have not seen it happening again. o We should wait on a queue even after slice expiry only if it is empty. If queue is not empty then continue to expire it. o If we decide to keep the queue then make cfqq=NULL. Otherwise select_queue() will return a valid cfqq and cfq_dispatch_request() can hit following BUG_ON().
