Subject: [PATCH v4 0/8] Handle update hardware queues and queue freeze more carefully

Hi,

This update version makes sure the unfreeze call is done when
recreating the queues. I was able to reproduce hanging I/Os when we go
into error recovery mode for FC and TCP [1]. Unfortunatly, I don't
have access to a RDMA setup to verify but as the code is identically
to the TCP, RDMA looks to like to suffer from the same problem.

Thanks,
Daniel

Subject: [PATCH v4 6/8] nvme-fc: fix controller reset hang during traffic

From: James Smart <[email protected]>

commit fe35ec58f0d3 ("block: update hctx map when use multiple maps")
exposed an issue where we may hang trying to wait for queue freeze
during I/O. We call blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues which may attempt to freeze
the queue. However we never started queue freeze when starting the
reset, which means that we have inflight pending requests that entered the
queue that we will not complete once the queue is quiesced.

So start a freeze before we quiesce the queue, and unfreeze the queue
after we successfully connected the I/O queues (the unfreeze is already
present in the code). blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues will be called only
after we are sure that the queue was already frozen.

This follows to how the pci driver handles resets.

This patch added logic introduced in commit 9f98772ba307 "nvme-rdma: fix
controller reset hang during traffic".

During the queue teardown in nvme_tcp_teardown_io_queues() freeze is

with an unfreeze to avoid hanging I/Os. For newly created connection
this is not needed.

Subject: [PATCH v4 5/8] nvme-fc: avoid race between time out and tear down

From: James Smart <[email protected]>

To avoid race between time out and tear down, in tear down process,
first we quiesce the queue, and then delete the timer and cancel
the time out work for the queue.

This patch merges the admin and io sync ops into the queue teardown logic
as shown in the RDMA patch 3017013dcc "nvme-rdma: avoid race between time
out and tear down". There is no teardown_lock in nvme-fc.
