Subject: [PATCH] blk-cgroup: wait for old blkgs to leave queue before disk rebind
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 14:58:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260818065823.753357-1-yukuai@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai@fygo.io>

blkcg_init_disk() currently waits for q->root_blkg to become NULL before
initializing blkcg state for a rebound disk. However, blkg_destroy_all()
clears q->root_blkg after calling blkg_destroy() for each blkg. At that
point the initial references have only been killed, and the blkgs remain
on q->blkg_list until the remaining references drain and
blkg_free_workfn() removes them.

A rebound disk can therefore install new blkcg state while old blkgs are
still attached to the request queue. Wait for q->blkg_list to become empty
instead, and wake the waiter when the final blkg is removed. This covers
the complete queue-side blkg lifetime without adding separate state.

Fixes: 3dbaacf6ab68 ("blk-cgroup: wait for blkcg cleanup before initializing new disk")
