[PATCH block-5.18] iocost: don't reset the inuse weight of under-weighted debtors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When an iocg is in debt, its inuse weight is owned by debt handling and
should stay at 1. This invariant was broken when determining the amount of
surpluses at the beginning of donation calculation - when an iocg's
hierarchical weight is too low, the iocg is excluded from donation
calculation and its inuse is reset to its active regardless of its
indebtedness, triggering warnings like the following:

 WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 0 at block/blk-iocost.c:1416 iocg_kick_waitq+0x392/0x3a0
 ...
 RIP: 0010:iocg_kick_waitq+0x392/0x3a0

  call_timer_fn+0xa1/0x2c0
 ...

As this happens only when an iocg's hierarchical weight is negligible, its
impact likely is limited to triggering the warnings. Fix it by skipping
resetting inuse of under-weighted debtors.
