What can it race against at this point?
The possible scenario is described in commit log (1. ~ 7.). In summary, blk_mq_finish_init() and blk_mq_freeze_queue_start() can be executed at the same time, so this is required to serialize the execution of percpu_ref_switch_to_percpu() by blk_mq_finish_init() and percpu_ref_kill() by blk_mq_freeze_queue_start(). >> @@ -115,11 +115,15 @@ void blk_mq_freeze_queue_start(struct request_queue *q) >> { >> int freeze_depth; >> >> + mutex_lock(&q->mq_freeze_lock); >> + >> freeze_depth = atomic_inc_return(&q->mq_freeze_depth); > > It doesn't have to be an atomic anymore, right? Yes, you are right. I would like to make it in another patch in order to simplify each change. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
