That approach has the advantage that no new if (q->mq_ops) test has to be introduced. Additionally, the call trace in the description of this patch shows that the comment in blk_execute_rq_nowait() is wrong. How about changing that comment as follows? @@ -57,10 +57,12 @@ void blk_execute_rq_nowait(struct request_queue *q, struct gendisk *bd_disk, rq->end_io = done; /* - * don't check dying flag for MQ because the request won't - * be reused after dying flag is set + * blk_freeze_queue() must be called before transitioning a queue + * into the "dead" state to guarantee that blk_execute_rq_nowait() + * won't attempt to queue a request on a "dead" blk-mq queue. */ if (q->mq_ops) { + WARN_ON_ONCE(blk_queue_dead(q)); blk_mq_sched_insert_request(rq, at_head, true, false, false); return; } Bart.
