I'll leave that to the SCSI crew. But at least one bug is in IPR, if you
look at the call trace:
- timer function triggers, runs ipr_reset_timer_done(), which grabs the
host lock AND disables interrupts.
- further down in the call path, ipr_ioa_bringdown_done() uncondtionally
enables interrupts:
spin_unlock_irq(ioa_cfg->host->host_lock);
scsi_unblock_requests(ioa_cfg->host);
spin_lock_irq(ioa_cfg->host->host_lock);
And the call to scsi_unblock_requests() is the one that ultimately runs
the queue. The IRQ issue aside here, scsi_unblock_requests() could run
the queue async, and we could retain the normal sync run otherwise.
Can you try the below fix? Should be more palatable than the previous
one. Brian, maybe you can take a look at the IRQ issue mentioned above?
