The output from `smdb.py preempt blk_mq_destroy_queue` says: nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() nvme_remove_io_tag_set() -> blk_mq_destroy_queue() I would have assumed that nothing is disabling preempt and the information just hasn't propagated through the call tree yet. However yesterday's DB has enough information to show why the warning is generated. nvme_fc_match_disconn_ls() takes spin_lock_irqsave(&rport->lock, flags); -> nvme_fc_ctrl_put(ctrl); -> kref_put(&ctrl->ref, nvme_fc_ctrl_free); -> nvme_remove_admin_tag_set(&ctrl->ctrl); -> blk_mq_destroy_queue(ctrl->admin_q); -> blk_mq_destroy_queue() <-- sleeps It's the link between kref_put() and nvme_fc_ctrl_free() where the data gets lost in today's DB. kref_put() is tricky to handle. I'm just puzzled why it worked yesterday. regards, dan carpenter
