Subject: [PATCH] blk-cgroup: clear blkg->pd[] with WRITE_ONCE() in blkcg_deactivate_policy()
Date: Tue,  7 Jul 2026 20:58:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707125814.1978139-1-guopeng.zhang@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>

blkcg_activate_policy() installs blkg->pd[] entries with WRITE_ONCE()
and also uses WRITE_ONCE() when clearing them on its error path.
blkg_to_pd() is used by RCU readers and reads the same array with
READ_ONCE().

blkcg_deactivate_policy() clears the entry with a plain store. Use
WRITE_ONCE() there as well.

Fixes: 56cc24f59c14 ("blk-cgroup: don't nest queue_lock under rcu in blkcg_print_blkgs()")
Signed-off-by: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>
