[PATCH REPOST] dm rq: replace BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled) with lockdep's lock annotation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In commit 052189a2ec95 ("dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in
dm_request_fn") the spin_lock_irq() was replaced with spin_lock() + a
check for disabled interrupts. Later the locking part was removed in
commit 2eb6e1e3aa87 ("dm: submit stacked requests in irq enabled
context") but the BUG_ON() check remained.
Mike Snitzer explained that:
|the queue_lock hasn't been removed for the old .request_fn path in block
|core -- which dm_old_request_fn is providing the hook for.
|
|This BUG_ON() documents that reality.

The BUG_ON() statement checks for disabled interrupts. The better check
would to let lockdep check if the required lock (queue_lock) is held.
Lockdep will then validate that the lock is held an complain if this is
not the case. Since lockdep will see this lock held in IRQ-context it
will also complain should the interrupts be enabled while lock still
held or acquired with enabled interrupts. So this !irq_disabled() is not
required.
This change helps to avoid the BUG_ON() statement on preempt-rt where
the lock is a sleeping lock and interrupts are never really disabled.
