The problem occurs in two async processes, One is when a new IO calls the blk_mq_start_request() interface to start sending,The other is that the block layer timer process calls the blk_mq_req_expired interface to check whether there is an IO timeout. When an instruction out of sequence occurs between blk_add_timer and WRITE_ONCE(rq->state,MQ_RQ_IN_FLIGHT) in the interface blk_mq_start_request,at this time, the block timer is checking the new IO timeout, Since the req status has been set to MQ_RQ_IN_FLIGHT and req->deadline is 0 at this time, the new IO will be misjudged as a timeout. Our repair plan is for the deadline to be 0, and we do not think that a timeout occurs. At the same time, because the jiffies of the 32-bit system will be reversed shortly after the system is turned on, we will add 1 jiffies to the deadline at this time.
