In android system, when there are lots of threads running. Thread A
holding *host_busy* count is easily to be preempted, and if at the
same time, thread B set *host_blocked*, then all other threads will
be io blocked.
Below the detail:
1). Thread A calls scsi_request_fn() and it increases *host_busy*.
But soon it is preempted.
2). Thread B call scsi_request_fn(), and it got failure from
scsi_dispatch_cmd(). So it set *host_blocked*
3). All the io blocked...
4). Thread A is scheduled again, and it decreases *host_busy*
in scsi_device_unbusy()
Afer step 2), all the io will be blocked, since scsi_host_queue_ready()
will always return 0.
----
scsi_host_queue_ready
{
if (atomic_read(&shost->host_blocked) > 0) {
if (busy) ==> true after step 2
goto starved;
}
----
The system will be unblocked after step 4).
This patch increases {host|target|device}_busy count after dispatch cmd.

Hello Ganesh,
Have you considered to insert preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() calls
where necessary to achieve the same effect? I think that would result in a
much less intrusive patch.
Thanks,
Bart.

Yes, preempt_disable()preempt_enable will also achieve the same effect.
But I just think preempt_disable()preempt_enable may be a little heavy for
this problem which can be fixed by increaseing {host|target|device}_busy count
after dispatch cmd.
Thanks.

Hello Ganesh,
If the {host,target,device}_busy counts would be increased after dispatch,
could that result in scsi_device_unbusy() being called from the completion
path before these counts have been increased?
Additionally, have you noticed that your patch does not apply anymore to
recent kernels since some of the counters are now increased from inside
scsi_mq_get_budget(), a function that is called from inside the block layer?
Thanks,
Bart.
