Subject: [PATCH 05/33] blkcg: move bulk of blkcg_gq release operations to the RCU callback
Date: Mon, 6 May 2013 15:45:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367880372-28312-6-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1367880372-28312-1-git-send-email-tj-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org>
Currently, when the last reference of a blkcg_gq is put, all then
release operations sans the actual freeing happen directly in
blkg_put(). As blkg_put() may be called under queue_lock, all
pd_exit_fn()s may be too. This makes it impossible for pd_exit_fn()s
to use del_timer_sync() on timers which grab the queue_lock which is
an irq-safe lock due to the deadlock possibility described in the
comment on top of del_timer_sync().
This can be easily avoided by perfoming the release operations in the
RCU callback instead of directly from blkg_put(). This patch moves
the blkcg_gq release operations to the RCU callback.
As this leaves __blkg_release() with only call_rcu() invocation,
blkg_rcu_free() is renamed to __blkg_release_rcu(), exported and
call_rcu() invocation is now done directly from blkg_put() instead of
going through __blkg_release() which is removed.
