Subject: [RFC PATCHv2 1/2] block: get rid of request queue ->sysfs_dir_lock
Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2025 23:10:23 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250123174124.24554-2-nilay@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250123174124.24554-1-nilay@linux.ibm.com>
The request queue uses ->sysfs_dir_lock for protecting the addition/
deletion of kobject entries under sysfs while we register/unregister
blk-mq. However kobject addition/deletion is already protected with
kernfs/sysfs internal synchronization primitives. So use of q->sysfs_
dir_lock seems redundant.
Moreover, q->sysfs_dir_lock is also used at few other callsites along
with q->sysfs_lock for protecting the addition/deletion of kojects.
One such example is when we register with sysfs a set of independent
access ranges for a disk. Here as well we could get rid off q->sysfs_
dir_lock and only use q->sysfs_lock.
The only variable which q->sysfs_dir_lock appears to protect is q->
mq_sysfs_init_done which is set/unset while registering/unregistering
blk-mq with sysfs. But use of q->mq_sysfs_init_done could be easily
replaced using queue registered bit QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.
So with this patch we remove q->sysfs_dir_lock from each callsite
and replace q->mq_sysfs_init_done using QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.
