Subject: [PATCH 0/2] nvme: fix reconnection stalls
Date: Thu,  4 Jun 2020 13:56:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200604115602.78446-1-hare@suse.de> (raw)

Hi all,

during testing we have come across namespaces not being available
after reconnection. This is caused by (yet another) deadlock between
reconnect and scanning; reconnection will wait for the scan workqueue
to be flushed, but scanning cannot make progress if I/O is
outstanding, as the I/O will only be completed _after_ reconnection
completed.
The particular issue here is that nvme_revalidate_disk() might be
several I/O to be sent; the first one (IDENTIFY NAMESPACE) will be
terminated, but the subsequent ones are not.
These two patches fix this deadlock by checking the controller state
before sending the I/O.

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.

Hannes Reinecke (2):
  nvme: check for NVME_CTRL_LIVE in nvme_report_ns_ids()
  nvme: do not update multipath disk information if the controller is
    down
