Subject: [PATCH v2] blk-iolatency: use guard(spinlock_irqsave)() in iolatency_clear_scaling()
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 15:34:21 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260717073421.2039722-1-cui.tao@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Tao Cui <cuitao@kylinos.cn>

child_lat.lock is acquired with irqsave semantics in both
iolatency_check_latencies() (called from the blkcg_iolatency_done_bio()
softirq path) and blkiolatency_timer_fn() (timer softirq).
iolatency_clear_scaling() instead uses a plain spin_lock(), which only
happens to be safe because both of its callers enter with interrupts
already disabled:

  * iolatency_set_limit() runs under queue_lock via blkg_conf_prep(),
    which returns with the lock held and interrupts disabled;
  * iolatency_pd_offline() runs under queue_lock from blkg_destroy() and
    blkcg_deactivate_policy(), both of which take it with spin_lock_irq().

Take the lock with guard(spinlock_irqsave)() so the locking is
self-contained and consistent with the other two sites, instead of
relying on an undocumented caller precondition. No functional change.
