[PATCH 27/30] mtd: don't use flush_scheduled_work()

[PATCH 27/30] mtd: don't use flush_scheduled_work()

[Tejun Heo]

flush_scheduled_work() is deprecated and scheduled to be removed.
Directly flush cxt->work_{erase|write} on removal instead.

Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
Cc: linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org
---
This is part of a series to remove flush_scheduled_work() usage to
prepare for deprecation of flush_scheduled_work().  Patches in this
series are self contained and mostly straight-forward.

Please feel free to take it into the appropriate tree, or just ack it.
In the latter case, I'll merge the patch through the workqueue tree
during the next merge window.

If you're seeing this patch for the second time, it's because the
commit hasn't showed up in mainline yet.  Please let me know what
should be done.

Thank you.

Pushed to l2-mtd-2.6.git, thanks. This means this will be merged to the
mtd tree a bit later and will go upstream.

The most of parts look OK to me, but I'm not sure about ASoC changes,
e.g. below one:

I vaguely remember Liam introduced this kind of code by some reason.

Liam, isn't it better for cancel_delayed_work_sync(), or should it be
like the above?

flush_delayed_work_sync() semantics has been recently changed such
that if a delayed work is pending it's queued immediately and then
completion is waited.  IOW, the behavior remains unchanged with the
above change.

Yes, I noticed it while I was reviewing your patch.  So it's pretty
correct.

Meanwhile, I wondered whether it's the really wanted behavior for
that particular code path, thus the previous question to Liam.

Yes, it's desired behaviour.  That's what the old code was trying to do.
I've not seen the original patch, could someone resend it to me please
(or send a pointer)?

Weirdly, lkml seemed to have eaten the original postings.  I can't
find them in any archive.  The following is the original patch.

For future reference please note that sound/soc is maintained as a
subtree of ALSA - if you could send patches to that separately to myself
and Liam as well as Takashi and Jaroslav that'd make life a little
easier.

I can resplit and resend if necessary.  Takashi, do you wanna take the
patch as-is or resplit?  Or shall I route it through wq tree?

No need, just merge it along with the rest of the patch however that's
going.  I was mentioning this for future reference rather than for the
present patch.

Liam, will the TWL6040 updates Magi posted the other day also be
affected?  I seem to remember they added the same pattern as WM835x has.

Not sure myself.

Magi, could you check your patch queue for any use of
flush_scheduled_work() here ?

flush_scheduled_work() is not being used in TWL6040 patches.

OK, now I merged to sound git tree.
Also it's merged back to topic/asoc branch with a conflict fix.
Please pull appropriately.

(I still don't remember why it had to be flush_work_sync() instead
 of cancel_work_sync() in the remove callback path for ASoC, though...
 Both aren't so much different nowadays and should work fine in such a
 case, though :)

Fwiw, I can't remember either why it had to be flush_work_sync() here.
The initial soc-core stuff was 5 years ago and the reason is well and
truly forgotten ;-)

Here it is.

I'll let Michael remove itself from MAINTAINERS and orphan the
driver if he no longer has any related hardware.

Thanks,

Thanks Tejun.  A couple questions:

Why do we want to move to a subsystem-specific workqueue?  Can we just
replace flush_scheduled_work() by cancel_delayed_work_sync() as
appropriate and not create yet another work queue?

 > * qib_wq is removed and ib_wq is used instead.

You obviously looked at the comment

-	/*

-	 */
-	qib_wq = create_workqueue("qib");

and know that with the new workqueue stuff, this issue no longer
exists.  But for both my education and also the clarity of the changelog
for this patch, perhaps you could expand on why ib_wq is safe here.

What are rescuers?

Can we replace some of these driver-specific work queues by the ib_wq?

Are all these things just possibilities for future cleanup?

Because there are places where work is used to free the containing
structure.  Before a module is unloaded, all works which uses
functions in the module should be flushed; however, if a work is used
to free the containing structure, such work can't be flushed
explicitly, so the workqueue which processes such works should be
flushed.

So, in this case, ib_wq is added primarily to serve as a flush domain.
For driver midlayers, this seems often necessary.  Also, the workqueue
doesn't have any dedicated worker and is quite cheap.

I think I got confused.  I thought the comment was indicating the
separation between qib_wq and qib_cq_wq.  It's between system_wq and
qib_wq, right?  I'll drop this part from the series, but then again
what's the difference from ib_srp, which flushes the common workqueue?
Why doesn't ib_srp have the same problem?

Normally, all workqueues share global per-cpu worker pool, but certain
workqueues needs forward progress guarantee under memory pressure (the
ones which are used to free memory).  In this case, the workqueues are
created with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM and has a single rescuer worker reserved.
So, any workqueue which is in memory reclaim path needs to have the
flag set to avoid the unlikely but still possible deadlock under
memory pressure.

> Can we replace some of these driver-specific work queues by the ib_wq?
>
> Are all these things just possibilities for future cleanup?

Hmm... Yeah, sure, they can be.  With the new implementation, separate
workqueues are used for the following purposes.

* As a forward progress guarantee domain as decribed above.

* As a flushing domain.

* As a property domain.  Different workqueues have different execution
  and queueing properties set.

Unless one of the above is necessary, work items can be queued
together into the same workqueue.  Concurrency-wise, it wouldn't make
any difference.  They all use the same set of workers anyway, but I
don't know the code well enough to make the changes myself.  If you're
interested in doing it, I'll be happy to help.

Thanks.

Looking at qib, I'm not sure the comment isn't confused -- the only
place I see where qib_wq or qib_cq_wq get flushed is by
destroy_workqueue() when the module is being unloaded. And we shouldn't
be there with rtnl_lock held by the caller.

Roland, please let me know how plan to proceed -- I need to update
ib_srp to get rid of *scheduled_work(), and I can either use the IB
core's queue, or define my own. Since it's cheap, I don't suppose it
matters much, but I think I'd prefer to share if possible.

Thanks,
Dave

Commit f0626710 (d9112f11586830d22501d0e26245ea) introduced ib_wq and
removed the use of flush_scheduled_work(); however, during merge
process one chunk was lost in ib_sa_remove_one().  Fix it.

Hello,

So, all the create* -> alloc* conversions were dropped (one
flush_scheduled_work() conversion was incorrectly dropped in the
process, fixed by the other patch).  Was this because of forward
progress under memory pressure guarantee?

It doesn't look like infiniband can be safely used in memory reclaim
path anyway (ie. it doesn't seem safe to host swap space) but I could
definitely be mistaken.  If forward progress is necessary, the right
thing to do is adding WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag to workqueue allocation
calls.

Thank you.

Thanks, applied.

BTW in the future if you can cc the linux-rdma@vger mailing list on RDMA patches
