Hi Aaron, I found a race condition with the block layer runtime PM due to which the q->nr_pending is decremented to less than zero (0xFFFF_FFFF (-1)) and hence the blk pre-runtime suspend always returns -EBUSY. The issue is easily reproduced with a scsi disk with disabled tagged command queuing sd_probe_async() -> add_disk() -> disk_add_event() -> schedule(disk_events_workfn) sd_revalidate_disk() blk_pm_runtime_init() return; Let's say the disk_events_workfn() calls sd_check_events() which tries to send test_unit_ready() and because of sd_revalidate_disk() trying to send another commands the test_unit_ready() might be re-queued as the tagged command queuing is disabled. So the race condition is - Thread 1 | Thread 2 sd_revalidate_disk() | sd_check_events() ...nr_pending = 0 as q->dev = NULL| scsi_queue_insert() blk_runtime_pm_init() | blk_pm_requeue_request() -> | nr_pending = -1 since | q->dev != NULL Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this issue? -- Regards, Sujit -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
