From 3ef28e83ab15799742e55fd13243a5f678b04242 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:20:12 -0400 Subject: block: generic request_queue reference counting Allow pmem, and other synchronous/bio-based block drivers, to fallback on a per-cpu reference count managed by the core for tracking queue live/dead state. The existing per-cpu reference count for the blk_mq case is promoted to be used in all block i/o scenarios. This involves initializing it by default, waiting for it to drop to zero at exit, and holding a live reference over the invocation of q->make_request_fn() in generic_make_request(). The blk_mq code continues to take its own reference per blk_mq request and retains the ability to freeze the queue, but the check that the queue is frozen is moved to generic_make_request(). This fixes crash signatures like the following: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880140000000 [..] Call Trace: [] ? copy_user_handle_tail+0x5f/0x70 [] pmem_do_bvec.isra.11+0x70/0xf0 [nd_pmem] [] pmem_make_request+0xd1/0x200 [nd_pmem] [] ? mempool_alloc+0x72/0x1a0 [] generic_make_request+0xd6/0x110 [] submit_bio+0x76/0x170 [] submit_bh_wbc+0x12f/0x160 [] submit_bh+0x12/0x20 [] jbd2_write_superblock+0x8d/0x170 [] jbd2_mark_journal_empty+0x5d/0x90 [] jbd2_journal_destroy+0x24b/0x270 [] ? put_pwq_unlocked+0x2a/0x30 [] ? destroy_workqueue+0x225/0x250 [] ext4_put_super+0x64/0x360 [] generic_shutdown_super+0x6a/0xf0 Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Keith Busch Cc: Ross Zwisler Suggested-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Tested-by: Ross Zwisler Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe --- block/blk-mq-sysfs.c | 6 ------ 1 file changed, 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'block/blk-mq-sysfs.c') diff --git a/block/blk-mq-sysfs.c b/block/blk-mq-sysfs.c index 788fffd9b409..6f57a110289c 100644 --- a/block/blk-mq-sysfs.c +++ b/block/blk-mq-sysfs.c @@ -413,12 +413,6 @@ static void blk_mq_sysfs_init(struct request_queue *q) kobject_init(&ctx->kobj, &blk_mq_ctx_ktype); } -/* see blk_register_queue() */ -void blk_mq_finish_init(struct request_queue *q) -{ - percpu_ref_switch_to_percpu(&q->mq_usage_counter); -} - int blk_mq_register_disk(struct gendisk *disk) { struct device *dev = disk_to_dev(disk); -- cgit v1.2.3
