linux-stable.git/block, branch v6.18.2 Linux kernel stable tree block: Use RCU in blk_mq_[un]quiesce_tagset() instead of set->tag_list_lock 2025-12-18T13:03:40+00:00 Mohamed Khalfella mkhalfella@purestorage.com 2025-12-05T21:17:02+00:00 ef0cd7b694928573f6569e61c14f5f059253162e [ Upstream commit 59e25ef2b413c72da6686d431e7759302cfccafa ] blk_mq_{add,del}_queue_tag_set() functions add and remove queues from tagset, the functions make sure that tagset and queues are marked as shared when two or more queues are attached to the same tagset.

Initially a tagset starts as unshared and when the number of added

made the nvme driver quiesce tagset instead of quiscing individual

This results in deadlock between two threads with these stacktraces:

The top stacktrace is showing nvme_timeout() called to handle nvme
command timeout. timeout handler is trying to disable the controller and
as a first step, it needs to blk_mq_quiesce_tagset() to tell blk-mq not
to call queue callback handlers. The thread is stuck waiting for
set->tag_list_lock as it tries to walk the queues in set->tag_list.

The lock is held by the second thread in the bottom stack which is
waiting for one of queues to be frozen. The queue usage counter will
drop to zero after nvme_timeout() finishes, and this will not happen
because the thread will wait for this mutex forever.

Given that [un]quiescing queue is an operation that does not need to
sleep, update blk_mq_[un]quiesce_tagset() to use RCU instead of taking
set->tag_list_lock, update blk_mq_{add,del}_queue_tag_set() to use RCU
safe list operations. Also, delete INIT_LIST_HEAD(&q->tag_set_list)
in blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set() because we can not re-initialize it while
the list is being traversed under RCU. The deleted queue will not be
added/deleted to/from a tagset and it will be freed in blk_free_queue()
after the end of RCU grace period.

 - Always freeze efivarfs during suspend/hibernate cycles

 - Fix statmount()'s and listmount()'s grab_requested_mnt_ns() helper to
   actually allow mount namespace file descriptor in addition to mount
   namespace ids

 - Fix tmpfs remount when noswap is specified

 - Switch Landlock to iput_not_last() to remove false-positives from
   might_sleep() annotations in iput()

 - Remove dead node_to_mnt_ns() code

 - Ensure that per-queue kobjects are successfully created
