From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ddd2b8de9f85b388925e7dc46b3890fc1a0d8d24 ] The keep alive timer needs to stay on nvmet_wq, and not modified to reschedule on the system_wq. This fixes a warning: ------------[ cut here ]------------ workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvmet-wq:nvmet_rdma_release_queue_work [nvmet_rdma] is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM events:nvmet_keep_alive_timer [nvmet] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1086 at kernel/workqueue.c:2628 check_flush_dependency+0x16c/0x1e0 Reported-by: Yi Zhang <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: 8832cf922151 ("nvmet: use a private workqueue instead of the system workqueue") Signed-off-by: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Chaitanya Kulkarni <kch@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/nvme/target/core.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/nvme/target/core.c b/drivers/nvme/target/core.c index 14677145bbba..aecb5853f8da 100644 --- a/drivers/nvme/target/core.c +++ b/drivers/nvme/target/core.c @@ -1176,7 +1176,7 @@ static void nvmet_start_ctrl(struct nvmet_ctrl *ctrl) * reset the keep alive timer when the controller is enabled. */ if (ctrl->kato) - mod_delayed_work(system_wq, &ctrl->ka_work, ctrl->kato * HZ); + mod_delayed_work(nvmet_wq, &ctrl->ka_work, ctrl->kato * HZ); } static void nvmet_clear_ctrl(struct nvmet_ctrl *ctrl) -- 2.35.1
