Hi,

     That was the constraint of managed interrupts from the very beginning:

      The driver/subsystem has to quiesce the interrupt line and the associated
      queue _before_ it gets shutdown in CPU unplug and not fiddle with it
      until it's restarted by the core when the CPU is plugged in again.
    "

But no drivers or blk-mq do that before one hctx becomes dead(all
CPUs for one hctx are offline), and even it is worse, blk-mq stills tries
to run hw queue after hctx is dead, see blk_mq_hctx_notify_dead().

This patchset tries to address the issue by two stages:

1) add one new cpuhp state of CPUHP_AP_BLK_MQ_ONLINE

- mark the hctx as internal stopped, and drain all in-flight requests
if the hctx is going to be dead.

2) re-submit IO in the state of CPUHP_BLK_MQ_DEAD after the hctx becomes dead

- steal bios from the request, and resubmit them via generic_make_request(),
then these IO will be mapped to other live hctx for dispatch

Please comment & review, thanks!

V2:
	- patch4 & patch 5 in V1 have been merged to block tree, so remove
	  them
	- address comments from John Garry and Minwoo


Ming Lei (5):
  blk-mq: add new state of BLK_MQ_S_INTERNAL_STOPPED
  blk-mq: add blk-mq flag of BLK_MQ_F_NO_MANAGED_IRQ
  blk-mq: stop to handle IO before hctx's all CPUs become offline
  blk-mq: re-submit IO in case that hctx is dead
  blk-mq: handle requests dispatched from IO scheduler in case that hctx
    is dead

Hi Ming,

This looks to fix the hotplug issue for me.

Previously I could manufacture a scenario while running fio where I got IO timeouts, like this:

root@(none)$ echo 0 > ./sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online
[  296.897627] process 891 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  296.898488] process 893 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  296.910270] process 890 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  296.927322] IRQ 775: no longer affine to CPU0
[  296.932762] CPU0: shutdown
[  296.935469] psci: CPU0 killed.
root@(none)$ [ 326.971962] sas: Enter sas_scsi_recover_host busy: 61 failed: 61
[  326.977978] sas: sas_scsi_find_task: aborting task 0x00000000e2cdc79b
root@(none)$ [ 333.047964] hisi_sas_v3_hw 0000:74:02.0: internal task abort: timeout and not done.
[  333.055616] hisi_sas_v3_hw 0000:74:02.0: abort task: internal abort (-5)
[  333.062306] sas: sas_scsi_find_task: querying task 0x00000000e2cdc79b

[  333.075295] sas: task 0x00000000e2cdc79b is not at LU: I_T recover
[  333.081464] sas: I_T nexus reset for dev 5000c500a7b95a49

Please notice the 30-second delay for the SCSI IO timeout.

And now I don't see it; here's a sample for irq shutdown:
root@(none)$ echo 0 > ./sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online
[  344.608148] process 849 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  344.608639] process 848 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  344.609454] process 850 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  344.643481] process 847 (fio) no longer affine to cpu0
[  346.213842] IRQ 775: no longer affine to CPU0
[  346.219712] CPU0: shutdown
[  346.222425] psci: CPU0 killed.

Please notice the ~1.5s pause, which would be the queue draining.

So FWIW:
Tested-by: John Garry <john.garry@xxxxxxxxxx>

JFYI, I tested on 5.3-rc5 and cherry-picked https://github.com/ming1/linux/commit/0d2cd3c99bb0fe81d2c0ca5d68e02bdc4521d4d6 and "blk-mq: add callback of .cleanup_rq".

Cheers,
John
