Subject: [PATCH v3] blk-cgroup: Use cond_resched() when destroy blkgs
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2021 13:58:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0be1a0a03367f7230497a2e7a5ed47d2a2d5ae1a.1611809091.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)

On !PREEMPT kernel, we can get below softlockup when doing stress
testing with creating and destroying block cgroup repeatly. The
reason is it may take a long time to acquire the queue's lock in
the loop of blkcg_destroy_blkgs(), or the system can accumulate a
huge number of blkgs in pathological cases. We can add a need_resched()
check on each loop and release locks and do cond_resched() if true
to avoid this issue, since the blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is not called
from atomic contexts.

Changes from v2:
 - Simplify logics suggested by Jens.

Changes from v1:
 - Add might_sleep() in blkcg_destroy_blkgs().
 - Add an explicitly need_resched() check before releasing lock.
 - Add some comments.
