Hi,
Thomas mentioned:
"
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 inactive(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
Thanks John Garry for running lots of tests on arm64 with this patchset
and co-working on investigating all kinds of issues.
Thanks Christoph's review on V7 & V8.
Please consider it for v5.8.
https://github.com/ming1/linux/commits/v5.7-rc-blk-mq-improve-cpu-hotplug
V11:
- drop new callback from blk_mq_all_tag_busy_iter, add new helper
of blk_mq_all_tag_iter (5/12), as suggested by Bart
- fix request allocation hang in case of queue freeze(11/12), as
reported by Bart
V10:
- fix double bio complete in request resubmission(10/11)
- add tested-by tag
V9:
- add Reviewed-by tag
- document more on memory barrier usage between getting driver tag
and handling cpu offline(7/11)
- small code cleanup as suggested by Chritoph(7/11)
- rebase against for-5.8/block(1/11, 2/11)
V8:
- add patches to share code with blk_rq_prep_clone
- code re-organization as suggested by Christoph, most of them are
in 04/11, 10/11
- add reviewed-by tag
V7:
- fix updating .nr_active in get_driver_tag
- add hctx->cpumask check in cpuhp handler
- only drain requests which tag is >= 0
- pass more aggressive cpuhotplug&io test
V6:
- simplify getting driver tag, so that we can drain in-flight
requests correctly without using synchronize_rcu()
- handle re-submission of flush & passthrough request correctly
V5:
- rename BLK_MQ_S_INTERNAL_STOPPED as BLK_MQ_S_INACTIVE
- re-factor code for re-submit requests in cpu dead hotplug handler
- address requeue corner case
V4:
- resubmit IOs in dispatch list in case that this hctx is dead
V3:
- re-organize patch 2 & 3 a bit for addressing Hannes's comment
- fix patch 4 for avoiding potential deadlock, as found by Hannes
V2:
- patch4 & patch 5 in V1 have been merged to block tree, so remove
them
- address comments from John Garry and Minwoo
