[PATCH 3/7] mpt3sas: Cancel the running work during host reset.

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

 



Currently during host reset time driver is cancelling only those Firmware
event works which are pending in Firmware event workqueue. It is not
cancelling the work which is running. With this patch driver cancels the
running work also.

Issue Description:

Even though it is not recommended to issue back to back host reset without
any delay, but if someone issues back to back host reset then we observe
that target devices gets unregistered and re-register with SML.
And if OS drive is behind the HBA then when it get unregistered, than
file-system goes into read-only mode. Normally during host reset driver
marks the target device as responding (if they are accessible) and add the
event 'MPT3SAS_REMOVE_UNRESPONDING_DEVICES' to remove the non-responding
devices through FW worker thread. while processing this event driver
unregistered the non-responding devices and clears the responding flag for
all the devices.

The reason why target devices are getting unregistered during successive host
resets is that during the host reset driver has to cleanup all the
outstanding FW event work (both queued one and the currently processing one)
but actually driver is cleaning only the queued events. So if
MPT3SAS_REMOVE_UNRESPONDING_DEVICES event is currently under process then
this event is not getting cleaned up, so at end of all successive host
reset this same event is getting processed more than once. And after the
event got processed for the first time, all the target devices responding
flag is cleared, so when the same is processed for the second time it see
that responding flag is zero, so driver unregistered all the target drives
even-though drives are responding. If driver cleanups the current running
work along with pending work, this type of behavior won't be observed.
