[PATCH v2 for-6.18/block 03/10] blk-mq: check invalid nr_requests in queue_requests_store()

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com>

queue_requests_store() is the only caller of
blk_mq_update_nr_requests(), and blk_mq_update_nr_requests() is the
only caller of blk_mq_tag_update_depth(), however, they all have
checkings for nr_requests input by user.

Make code cleaner by moving all the checkings to the top function:

1) nr_requests > reserved tags;
2) if there is elevator, 4 <= nr_requests <= 2048;
3) if elevator is none, 4 <= nr_requests <= tag_set->queue_depth;

Meanwhile, case 2 is the only case tags can grow and -ENOMEM might be
returned.

[PATCH v2 for-6.18/block 04/10] blk-mq: convert to serialize updating nr_requests with update_nr_hwq_lock

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com>

request_queue->nr_requests can be changed by:

a) switch elevator by updating nr_hw_queues
b) switch elevator by elevator sysfs attribute
c) configue queue sysfs attribute nr_requests

Current lock order is:

1) update_nr_hwq_lock, case a,b
2) freeze_queue
3) elevator_lock, case a,b,c

And update nr_requests is seriablized by elevator_lock() already,
however, in the case c, we'll have to allocate new sched_tags if
nr_requests grow, and do this with elevator_lock held and queue
freezed has the risk of deadlock.

Hence use update_nr_hwq_lock instead, make it possible to allocate
memory if tags grow, meanwhile also prevent nr_requests to be changed
concurrently.

For shared tags case, all hctx->sched_tags/tags are the same, it doesn't
make sense to call into blk_mq_tag_update_depth() multiple times for the

Hi everyone,

My review automation flagged this one in linux-next, and it looks like a
valid bug to me:

                        ^^^^

Does blk_mq_tag_update_sched_shared_tags() use the wrong value here?

In the old code, q->nr_requests was updated to nr before calling
blk_mq_tag_update_sched_shared_tags(). But in the new code, this
function is called while q->nr_requests still contains the old value.

Looking at blk_mq_tag_update_sched_shared_tags():

    void blk_mq_tag_update_sched_shared_tags(struct request_queue *q)
    {
        sbitmap_queue_resize(&q->sched_shared_tags->bitmap_tags,
                             q->nr_requests - q->tag_set->reserved_tags);
    }

It reads q->nr_requests to calculate the new sbitmap size. With the
reordering, this will resize the sbitmap to the old depth instead of
the new depth passed in nr.
