Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 7/8] bfq: avoid blkg lookup from locked cgroup update
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 20:30:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724123037.3004560-8-yukuai@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724123037.3004560-1-yukuai@kernel.org>

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai@fygo.io>

bfq_bio_bfqg() is called while bfqd->lock is held from the merge and
request insertion paths.  It walks bio->bi_blkg and its parent chain to
find the closest online BFQ group, and re-associates the bio by looking
the chosen blkg up again through bio_associate_blkg_from_css().

Now that blkg creation runs under q->blkcg_mutex from the sleepable submit
path, bio_associate_blkg_from_css() can sleep on a lookup miss, which BFQ
must not do while holding bfqd->lock.  The blkg BFQ wants is already in
hand from the ancestry walk, so update bio->bi_blkg by swapping references
to that existing blkg directly instead of looking it up again by css.
