[PATCH for-5.0 v2 0/3] block: Fix blk->in_flight during blk_wait_while_drained()

[Kevin Wolf]

This fixes deadlocks when draining a BlockBackend in an iothread that
receives new requests at the same time.

v2:
- Rework the whole thing so that direct callers of blk_co_*() aren't
  broken after the series [Max]

  block-backend: Reorder flush/pdiscard function definitions
  block: Increase BB.in_flight for coroutine interfaces
  block: Fix blk->in_flight during blk_wait_while_drained()

[PATCH for-5.0 v2 1/3] block-backend: Reorder flush/pdiscard function definitions

[Kevin Wolf]

Move all variants of the flush/pdiscard functions to a single place and
put the blk_co_*() version first because it is called by all other
variants (and will become static in the next patch).

[PATCH for-5.0 v2 2/3] block: Increase BB.in_flight for coroutine interfaces

[Kevin Wolf]

External callers of blk_co_*() don't currently increase the
BlockBackend.in_flight counter, but calls from blk_aio_*() do, so there
is an inconsistency whether the counter has been increased or not.

This patch moves the actual operations to static functions that can
later know they will always be called with in_flight increased exactly
once, even for external callers using the blk_co_*() coroutine
interfaces.

If the public blk_co_*() interface is unused, remove it.

[PATCH for-5.0 v2 3/3] block: Fix blk->in_flight during blk_wait_while_drained()

[Kevin Wolf]

Waiting in blk_wait_while_drained() while blk->in_flight is increased
for the current request is wrong because it will cause the drain
operation to deadlock.

This patch makes sure that blk_wait_while_drained() is called with
blk->in_flight increased exactly once for the current request, and that
it temporarily decreases the counter while it waits.

Hmm. You promise to make sure that in_flight increased exactly once. Shouldn't it be assert(blk->in_flight == 1) ?

Hm, you drop it as it's called from blk_do_preadv too. I think it worth mentioning in commit message still.

And still, if my suggestion in previous patch works, we may fix it all without extra blk_dec/blk_inc pair, by just moving blk_inc_ after blk_wait_while_drained in my previous suggestion.. It looks more native for me (but may be I miss something?):

No, it would be wrong because it would be too late. The main purpose of
blk_inc_in_flight() is to keep the request covered during the first and
the last phase outside of blk_co_*(), which can potentially involve BHs
like blk_aio_complete_bh().

Exactly once for this specific request, but if you have multiple
requests in flight, blk->in_flight will be the sum of all requests.

Just asserting > 0 should still catch potential bugs because you won't

Okay, I can add a sentence like "The blk_wait_while_drained() call in
blk_aio_read/write_entry is redundant with the one in blk_co_*(), so
drop it."

OK, thanks, I see now, we want to caver possible completion BH.
Hmm, not too late but too early (for decrement).. As nothing interesting
happening between increment in blk_aio_prwv and entering the coroutine with
_do_ function.

Yes, I agree.

Hmm still interesting, could we move somehow blk_wait_while_drained out of inc/dec section? It seems there are no yields and no coroutine switches between first in_flight increment and call of blk_wait_while_drained, only initialization of acb.

Basically it covers everything that isn't yet covered by
bdrv_inc/dec_in_flight() on the node level, but completion is probably
the most important part.

Start, too, because actually something very interesting is happening
between blk_aio_prwv() and blk_do_*(): It uses bdrv_coroutine_enter(),
which in some circumstances may end up only scheduling the coroutine
instead of immediately entering it.

I missed this fact, I thought bdrv_coroutine_enter is simpler. OK, thanks. You answered my question in next too.

On second thought (I assumed this would be addressed by the third
patch), blk_prw() no longer increments in_flight, but the blk_co_*
functions do that now.  In v1, blk_prw() did that.

I thought we’d want blk_prw() to set in_flight, just like blk_aio_prwv()
does, and then let the synchronous functions that use blk_prw() pass the
blk_do_* functions to it.

Does it make a difference, though?

But the change should be easy enough (inc/dec in blk_prw() and the let
*_entry() call blk_do_*() instead of blk_co_*()) that I guess I can just
do it and send a v3.

You mean because blk_prw() has a fast path for “already in coroutine”?
Perhaps not.  Still, feels a bit weird to me not to have in_flight
incremented around a potential POLL loop.

Maybe mostly I was wondering why v1 did and v2 didn’t. *shrug*
