Subject: [patch 13/13] BLOCK: Fix bad sharing of tag busy list on queues with shared tag maps
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:09:58 -0800	[thread overview]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

patch 6eca9004dfcb274a502438a591df5b197690afb1 in mainline.

For the locking to work, only the tag map and tag bit map may be shared
(incidentally, I was just explaining this to Nick yesterday, but I
apparently didn't review the code well enough myself). But we also share
the busy list!  The busy_list must be queue private, or we need a
block_queue_tag covering lock as well.

So we have to move the busy_list to the queue. This'll work fine, and
it'll actually also fix a problem with blk_queue_invalidate_tags() which
will invalidate tags across all shared queues. This is a bit confusing,
the low level driver should call it for each queue seperately since
otherwise you cannot kill tags on just a single queue for eg a hard
drive that stops responding. Since the function has no callers
currently, it's not an issue.

This is fixed with commit 6eca9004dfcb274a502438a591df5b197690afb1 in
Linus' tree.
