Subject: [PATCH 7.2 34/88] io_uring/cancel: let CANCEL_ALL find parked requests
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 17:59:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028165942.916735343@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028165942.107695352@linuxfoundation.org>
7.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>
Commit fe6ca13c98b1223f6005f32913ebd32e4df64b77 upstream.
A cancellation with IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_ALL or _ANY goes on until it finds
nothing more. A request may stay where it was found for a while after it
has been cancelled, so each one that matches is stamped with the sequence
number of the cancellation, and is skipped from then on.
io_cancel_cb() does so for io-wq work as well. There is no need to:
pending work is taken off the list, and the workers are looked at once per
call. And it does harm. A request that is run by io-wq may be parked
while it still is the current work of the worker: poll gets armed for it,
or it is put on ->futex_list or ->waitid_list.
io-wq worker io_try_cancel()
io_wq_submit_work()
io_arm_poll_handler()
io_poll_add_hash()
io_async_cancel_one()
io_cancel_cb()
stamps the request
sets IO_WQ_WORK_CANCEL
= -EALREADY
io_poll_cancel()
skips the request
= -ENOENT
io_assign_current_work(NULL)
The flag comes too late for the worker to see it, and the search that
would have found the request takes it for done. The cancellation returns,
and the request stays.
With a multishot poll, IOSQE_ASYNC, and IORING_OP_ASYNC_CANCEL with
IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_ALL up to 63us later, that happens to 4 of 1,000
requests (4 CPUs, KVM).
Take the stamp off again if the work matches. If the request is found
on one of the lists it gets a new one, and io_cancel_cb() doesn't match it
a second time.
__io_async_cancel() tries the io-wq of the caller twice. So far the stamp
has kept it from counting work that is running there the second time.
Skip it instead, so that the number that is returned stays the same.
