Subject: [PATCH v2 17/32] swim: Convert to blocking queue
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 11:17:10 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <de6370c913402e8aef184f6560b3cd758cf99bab.1786929430.git.fthain@linux-m68k.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1786929430.git.fthain@linux-m68k.org>
These drives are slow: completing a request can take hundreds of
milliseconds. Delays are managed by disabling interrupts judiciously and
sleeping opportunistically.
As of commit e3896d77b702 ("swim: convert to blk-mq"), a spinlock is
taken in irq mode as soon as a request is issued. That lock is held for
the duration of the request. Hence the driver sleeps while holding the
lock which is forbidden.
Adopt BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING and remove the spinlock. Use a mutex to serialize
requests from the two request queues. (The chip cannot simultaneously
process requests on both internal and external drive.)
