[PATCH 2.6.32 2/7] [SCSI] block: Fix blk_execute_rq_nowait() dead queue handling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Muthukumar Ratty <muthur@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e81ca6fe85b77109a32489a5db82f575d51dfc98 upstream.

If the queue is dead blk_execute_rq_nowait() doesn't invoke the done()
callback function. That will result in blk_execute_rq() being stuck
in wait_for_completion(). Avoid this by initializing rq->end_io to the
done() callback before we check the queue state. Also, make sure the
queue lock is held around the invocation of the done() callback. Found
this through source code review.

This is another fix-up for "fix crash in scsi_dispatch_cmd()" applied in
2.6.32.61.
