Hi,
my qemu-sparc64 tests fail to run with kernel v4.0-7245-ga39ef1a7c609.
Bisect points to commit 889fa31f00b ("blk-mq: reduce unnecessary software
queue looping"). Reverting this commit fixes the problem.
I had a look into the commit, but I have no idea what might be wrong.
I made the bisect log, images, configuration file, root file system, and
directions
on how to run the images available at
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://server.roeck-us.net/qemu/sparc64&k=ZVNjlDMF0FElm4dQtryO4A%3D%3D%0A&r=3JMVyziIyZtZ5cv9eWNLwQ%3D%3D%0A&m=%2FUVX9MC8j8RmqOwlL6HnyBe%2FFSO5xSJdG3GTTzADFYk%3D%0A&s=caaf39bb4246d5223f9dea93771fdb075f9046b6fdf1822b7da21d7665da71d5.
Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide.
As additional information:

+ map->map_size = hctx->nr_ctx / map->bits_per_word;
On my system, hctx->nr_ctx is 1, and map->bits_per_word is 8.
Thus map->map_size is set to 0, which doesn't make much sense.
The system comes up if I replace the above code with
map->map_size = DIV_ROUND_UP(hctx->nr_ctx, map->bits_per_word);
I have no idea if that is the correct fix, though.
Ugh, yes indeed, looks like the <= was lost from a previous patch. Now I
wonder why it I didn't see any hangs with this... Thanks for reporting,
I'll get a fix in today.
