A driver may have internal state to cleanup if we're pretending a request
didn't complete. Return 'false' if the command wasn't actually completed
due to the timeout error injection, and true otherwise.

The scsi timeout error handling had been directly updating the block
layer's request state to prevent a error handling and a natural completion
from completing the same request twice. Fix this layering violation
by having scsi control the fate of its commands with scsi owned flags
rather than use blk-mq's.

There are no more users relying on blk-mq request states to prevent
double completions, so replace the relatively expensive cmpxchg operation
with WRITE_ONCE.

Is this the nvme target on top of null_blk?

And it goes away if you revert just the last patch?

It looks like a problem existed before that last patch. Reverting it
helps only if the request happened to have not been reallocated. If it
had been reallocated, the NULL_IRQ_TIMER would have completed the wrong
request out-of-order. If this were a real device, that'd probably result
in data corruption.

null_blk just needs updating for this.

Isn't this the nvme target's problem? It shouldn't complete requests
dispatched to its backing device, so I'm thinking something like the
following is what should happen. Untested at the moment, but will try
it out shortly.

I looked at null_blk after the fact, and my recollection of how
that timeout stuff worked was wrong. I think you are right.

The above tests fine with io and nvme resets on a target nvme loop
backed by null_blk, but I also couldn't recreate the original report
without the patch.
Ming,
Could you tell me a little more how you set it up? I'm just configuring
null_blk with queue_mode=2 irqmode=2. Anything else to recreate?
Thanks,
Keith

No any parameters for null_blk.
You may find all the scripts and .json here:
http://people.redhat.com/minlei/tests/tools/nvme/
And the test entry is nvme_sanity.

Grr, the above doesn't work so well when not using NVMe mpath because
nvmf_check_ready() will requeue it, leaving entered requests that won't
be started.
Waiting for a freeze isn't really the criteria we need anyway: we don't
care if there are entered requests in REQ_MQ_IDLE. We just want to wait
for dispatched ones to return, and we currently don't have a good way
to sync with that condition.

One thing making this weird is that blk_mq_request_started() returns true
for COMPLETED requests, and that makes no sense to me. Completed is
the opposite of started, so I'm not sure why we would return true for
such states. Is anyone actually depending on that?
If we can return true only for started commands, the following
implements the desired wait criteria:

Independ of this series this change looks like the right thing to do.
But this whole area is a mine field, so separate testing would be
very helpful.
I also wonder why we even bother with the above helper, a direct
state comparism seems a lot more obvious to the reader.
Last but not least the blk_mq_request_started check in nbd
should probably be lifted into blk_mq_tag_to_rq while we're at it..
As for the nvme issue - it seems to me like we need to decouple the
nvme loop frontend request from the target backend request. In case
of a timeout/reset we'll complete struct request like all other nvme
transport drivers, but we leave the backend target state around, which
will be freed when it completes (or leaks when the completion is lost).

I think it's just because blk_mq_rq_state() is a private interface. The
enum mq_rq_state is defined under include/linux/, so it looks okay to
make getting the state public too.

I don't think nvme's loop target should do anything to help a command
complete. It shouldn't even implement a timeout for the same reason
no stacking block driver implements these. If a request is stuck, the
lowest level is the only driver that should have the responsibility to
make it unstuck.

Not quite.
You still need to be able to reset the controller, which you can't if
you have to wait for the lowest level.

Today I run this test again and can't reproduce it any more.
So maybe not a new issue, and it is just triggered in yesterday's
for-4.21/block, :-)
Thanks,

Can you reproduce with yesterday's tree then?
I'm obviously a bit concerned about merging something without knowing
the cause of the problems you were seeing.

Hi Martin,
The panic is triggered on my auto daily test on yesterday's
for-4.21/block.
It isn't triggered in today's for-4.21/block. Also not triggered any more
when I run same test again on yesterday's for-4.21/block(5f0ed774ed29).
Thanks,
Ming
