When running multipath on a VM if all available paths go down
the driver can schedule large amounts of storvsc_remove_lun
work items to the same lun. In response to the failing paths
typically storvsc responds by taking host->scan_mutex and issuing
a TUR per lun. If there has been heavy IO to the failed device
all the failed IOs are returned from the host. A remove lun work
item is issued per failed IO. If the outstanding TURs have not been
completed in a timely manner the scan_mutex is never released or
released too late. Consequently the many remove lun work items are
not completed as scsi_remove_device also tries to take host->scan_mutex.
This results in dragging the VM down and sometimes completely.
This patch only allows one remove lun to be issued to a particular
lun while it is an instantiated member of the scsi stack.
Changes since v1:
Use single threaded workqueue to serialize work in
storvsc_handle_error [Christoph Hellwig]
Changes since v2:
Replaced create_singlethread_workqueue with
alloc_ordered_workqueue [Christoph Hellwig]
Added reviewed by's.
