[PATCH 1/2] block: add proper state guards to __elv_next_request

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

 



blk_cleanup_queue() calls elevator_exit() and after this, we can't
touch the elevator without oopsing.  __elv_next_request() must check
for this state because in the refcounted queue model, we can still
call it after blk_cleanup_queue() has been called.

This was reported as causing an oops attributable to scsi.
