tear down file system I/O in del_gendisk v2

tear down file system I/O in del_gendisk v2

[Christoph Hellwig]

Ming reported that for SCSI we have a lifetime problem now that
the BDI moved from the request_queue to the disk as del_gendisk
doesn't finish all outstanding file system I/O.  It turns out
this actually is an older problem, although the case where it could
be hit before was very unusual (unbinding of a SCSI upper driver
while the scsi_device stays around).  This series fixes this by
draining all I/O in del_gendisk.

Changes since v1:
 - fix a commit log typo
 - keep the existing nowait vs queue dying semantics in bio_queue_enter 
 - actually keep q_usage_counter in atomic mode after del_gendisk

[PATCH 1/4] block: factor out a blk_try_enter_queue helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

Factor out the code to try to get q_usage_counter without blocking into
a separate helper.  Both to improve code readability and to prepare for
splitting bio_queue_enter from blk_queue_enter.

[PATCH 2/4] block: split bio_queue_enter from blk_queue_enter

[Christoph Hellwig]

To prepare for fixing a gendisk shutdown race, open code the
blk_queue_enter logic in bio_queue_enter.  This also removes the
pointless flags translation.

[PATCH 3/4] block: drain file system I/O on del_gendisk

[Christoph Hellwig]

Instead of delaying draining of file system I/O related items like the
blk-qos queues, the integrity read workqueue and timeouts only when the
request_queue is removed, do that when del_gendisk is called.  This is
important for SCSI where the upper level drivers that control the gendisk
are separate entities, and the disk can be freed much earlier than the
request_queue, or can even be unbound without tearing down the queue.

Fixes: edb0872f44ec ("block: move the bdi from the request_queue to the gendisk")

After blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() returns, blk_try_enter_queue() will return
true, so new FS I/O from opened bdev still won't be blocked, right?

It won't be blocked by blk_mq_unfreeze_queue, but because the capacity
is set to 0 it still won't make it to the driver.

One bio could be made & checked before set_capacity(0), then is
submitted after blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() returns.

blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait() doesn't always imply RCU grace period, for
example, the .q_usage_counter may have been in atomic mode before
calling blk_queue_start_drain() & blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait().

True, but this isn't really a new issue as we never had proper quiesce
behavior.  I have a bunch of ideas of how to make this actually solid,

It is new issue since edb0872f44ec ("block: move the bdi from the
request_queue to the gendisk").

Previously bdi has longer lifetime than request queue, but now it becomes
not, then either queue_to_disk() or queue->disk may cause panic.


Thanks,

I always tend to become a bit nervous about simple 'set_bit' statements.
On the one side, it _might_ be already set (unlikely, I know).
But more importantly, 'set_bit' implies no memory barrier, so we have an 
inherent race condition.
So don't you need a barrier here to synchronize the 'state' variable 
update to all CPUs?
Or can't we just make it a

if (test_and_set_bit(GD_DEAD, &disk->state))
	WARN()

Hmm?

[PATCH 4/4] block: keep q_usage_counter in atomic mode after del_gendisk

[Christoph Hellwig]

Don't switch back to percpu mode to avoid the double RCU grace period
when tearing down SCSI devices.  After removing the disk only passthrough
commands can be send anyway.

tear down file system I/O in del_gendisk

[Christoph Hellwig]

Ming reported that for SCSI we have a lifetime problem now that
the BDI moved from the request_queue to the disk as del_gendisk
doesn't finish all outstanding file system I/O.  It turns out
this actually is an older problem, although the case where it could
be hit before was very unusual (unbinding of a SCSI upper driver
while the scsi_device stays around).  This series fixes this by
draining all I/O in del_gendisk.

[PATCH 3/4] block: drain file system I/O on del_gendisk

[Christoph Hellwig]

Instead of delaying draining of file system I/O related items like the
blk-qos queues, the integrity read workqueue and timeouts only when the
request_queue is removed, do that when del_gendisk is called.  This is
important for SCSI where the upper level drivers that control the gendisk
are separate entities, and the disk can be freed much earlier than the
request_queue, or can even be unbound without tearing down the queue.

Fixes: edb0872f44ec ("block: move the bdi from the request_queue to the gendisk")
