Two weeks have passed, and I did not observed the hang! Then I'm confident that the v1 fix series by Thomas avoided the rcu stall issue in my xfs-zoned test systems. The series is already in v6.19 kernel tag as v2. Great. Thomas, just FYI. I faced mysterious kernel hangs during my regular fstests runs [1]. RCU experts suggested the hangs might be caused by the recent MMCID changes. I tried your v1 fix patch series "sched/mmcid: Cure mode transition woes", and confirmed it avoids the hangs. Thank you for the fix. The v2 series is already in v6.19 kernel tag, so this report might not be so valuable, but just in case. (And thank you again for the additional quick fix for my blktests failure caused by one of the patches in the series). [1] https://lore.kernel.org/rcu/aXdO52wh2rqTUi1E@shinmob/
