This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled blk-wbt: don't enable throttling if default elevator is bfq to the 6.1-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: blk-wbt-don-t-enable-throttling-if-default-elevator-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 51938e4e6ade6005901b700cfe6ecdd7481af216 Author: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Oct 19 20:15:18 2022 +0800 blk-wbt: don't enable throttling if default elevator is bfq [ Upstream commit 671fae5e51297fc76b3758ca2edd514858734a6a ] Commit b5dc5d4d1f4f ("block,bfq: Disable writeback throttling") tries to disable wbt for bfq, it's done by calling wbt_disable_default() in bfq_init_queue(). However, wbt is still enabled if default elevator is bfq: device_add_disk elevator_init_mq bfq_init_queue wbt_disable_default -> done nothing blk_register_queue wbt_enable_default -> wbt is enabled Fix the problem by adding a new flag ELEVATOR_FLAG_DISBALE_WBT, bfq will set the flag in bfq_init_queue, and following wbt_enable_default() won't enable wbt while the flag is set.
