Re: [PATCH] blk-cgroup: fix rcu lockdep warning in blkg_lookup()

Hi,

在 2023/12/19 9:28, Ming Lei 写道:
blkg_lookup() is called with either queue_lock or rcu read lock, so
use rcu_dereference_check(lockdep_is_held(&q->queue_lock)) for
retrieving 'blkg', which way models the check exactly for covering
queue lock or rcu read lock.

Fix lockdep warning of "block/blk-cgroup.h:254 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!"
from blkg_lookup().

This patch itself is correct, and in fact this is a false positive
warning.

I noticed that commit 83462a6c971c ("blkcg: Drop unnecessary RCU read
[un]locks from blkg_conf_prep/finish()") drop rcu_read_lock/unlock()
because 'queue_lock' is held. This is correct, however you add this back
for tg_conf_updated() later in commit 27b13e209ddc ("blk-throttle: fix
lockdep warning of "cgroup_mutex or RCU read lock required!"") because
rcu_read_lock_held() from blkg_lookup() is triggered. And this patch is
again another use case cased by commit 83462a6c971c.

I just wonder, with the respect of rcu implementation, is it possible to
add preemptible() check directly in rcu_read_lock_held() to bypass all
this kind of false positive warning?

Thanks,
Kuai
