This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled md/raid10: fix task hung in raid10d to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: md-raid10-fix-task-hung-in-raid10d.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 58491d052144e13b1d17e50ba3a8b5cd72c72017 Author: Li Nan <linan122@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Feb 22 12:09:59 2023 +0800 md/raid10: fix task hung in raid10d [ Upstream commit 72c215ed8731c88b2d7e09afc51fffc207ae47b8 ] commit fe630de009d0 ("md/raid10: avoid deadlock on recovery.") allowed normal io and sync io to exist at the same time. Task hung will occur as below: T1 T2 T3 T4 raid10d handle_read_error allow_barrier conf->nr_pending-- -> 0 //submit sync io raid10_sync_request raise_barrier ->will not be blocked ... //submit to drivers raid10_read_request wait_barrier conf->nr_pending++ -> 1 //retry read fail raid10_end_read_request reschedule_retry add to retry_list conf->nr_queued++ -> 1 //sync io fail end_sync_read __end_sync_read reschedule_retry add to retry_list conf->nr_queued++ -> 2 ... handle_read_error get form retry_list conf->nr_queued-- freeze_array wait nr_pending == nr_queued+1 ->1 ->2 //task hung retry read and sync io will be added to retry_list(nr_queued->2) if they fails. raid10d() called handle_read_error() and hung in freeze_array(). nr_queued will not decrease because raid10d is blocked, nr_pending will not increase because conf->barrier is not released. Fix it by moving allow_barrier() after raid10_read_request(). raise_barrier() will wait for nr_waiting to become 0. Therefore, sync io and regular io will not be issued at the same time. Also remove the check of nr_queued in stop_waiting_barrier. It can be 0 but don't need to be blocking. Remove the check for MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING as the check is redundent.
