From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 533d2e8b4d5e4c89772a0adce913525fb86cbbee ] We probably need nvmet_tcp_wq to have MEM_RECLAIM as we are sending/receiving for the socket from works on this workqueue. Also this eliminates lockdep complaints: -- [ 6174.010200] workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvmet-wq:nvmet_tcp_release_queue_work [nvmet_tcp] is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvmet_tcp_wq:nvmet_tcp_io_work [nvmet_tcp] [ 6174.010216] WARNING: CPU: 20 PID: 14456 at kernel/workqueue.c:2628 check_flush_dependency+0x110/0x14c Reported-by: Yi Zhang <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c b/drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c index 4341c7244662..e9512d077b8a 100644 --- a/drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c +++ b/drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c @@ -1762,7 +1762,8 @@ static int __init nvmet_tcp_init(void) { int ret; - nvmet_tcp_wq = alloc_workqueue("nvmet_tcp_wq", WQ_HIGHPRI, 0); + nvmet_tcp_wq = alloc_workqueue("nvmet_tcp_wq", + WQ_MEM_RECLAIM | WQ_HIGHPRI, 0); if (!nvmet_tcp_wq) return -ENOMEM; -- 2.35.1
