Subject: [PATCH net] net/sched: re-enable queue reset on root qdisc graft
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 11:12:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260514031242.2667-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)

Commit 47e8dbb6e763 ("net/sched: do not reset queues in graft
operations") changed dev_deactivate() in qdisc_graft() from
reset_needed=true to false. This was the right call for graft paths
where the new qdisc has an ->attach op (mq): the new root
takes over per-tx-queue state via attach, and a blanket reset would
needlessly drop packets in unrelated leaves on every graft.

For the path where the new qdisc has no ->attach (e.g. HTB, sfq
as root, or qdisc_graft() called for deletion with new == NULL), the
old root subtree is going to be torn down anyway: every leaf will be
freed shortly via __qdisc_destroy(). Skipping the early reset there
provides no benefit, but it leaves leaf qdiscs with their queues
intact during the window between rcu_assign_pointer(dev->qdisc, new)
and the per-leaf sfq_destroy()/timer_delete_sync(). If a leaf has a
self-armed timer that walks the parent chain (sfq_perturbation ->
sfq_rehash -> qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog), the timer can fire after the
old root has been swapped out, find dev->qdisc no longer matching,
and trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(parentid != TC_H_ROOT).
