Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] cancel all throttled bios in del_gendisk()

If del_gendisk() is done when some io are still throttled, such io
will not be handled until the throttle is done, which is not
necessary.

Changes in v2:
- move WARN_ON_ONCE() from throtl_rb_first() to it's caller
- merge some patches into one.

Changes in v3:
- some code optimization in patch 1
- hold queue lock to cancel bios in patch 2

Changes in v4:
- delete rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() in patch 2

Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] block: cancel all throttled bios in del_gendisk()

Throttled bios can't be issued after del_gendisk() is done, thus
it's better to cancel them immediately rather than waiting for
throttle is done.

For example, if user thread is throttled with low bps while it's
issuing large io, and the device is deleted. The user thread will
wait for a long time for io to return.

Noted this patch is mainly from revertion of commit 32e3374304c7
("blk-throttle: remove tg_drain_bios") and commit b77412372b68
("blk-throttle: remove blk_throtl_drain").

Do I understand correctly the "long time" here is
outstanding_IO_size/throttled_bandwidth? Or are you getting at some
other cause/longer time?

You've replaced the rcu_read_lock() with the queue lock but...

...you also need the rcu_read_lock() here since you may encounter a
(descendant) blkcg that's removed concurrently.

(I may miss some consequences of doing this under the queue_lock so if
the concurrent removal is ruled out, please make a comment about it.)

Michal

blkg_destroy() is protected by the queue_lock,so I think queue_lock can
protect such concurrent scenario.

blkg_destroy() is not as destroying :-) as actual free, you should
synchronize against (the queue_lock ensures this for
pd_free_fn=throtl_pd_free but you may still trip on blkcg after
blkcg_css_free()).

[Actually, I think you should see a warning in your situation if you
enable CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.]

HTH,
Michal

Hi, Michal

I was thinking that if there are active blkgs, holding queue_lock will
ensure blkcg won't be freed. However, if there are no active blkgs in
the first place, it seems right rcu_read_lock() can prevent this
iteration concurrent with css_release->css_release_work_fn->
css_free_rwork_fn.

By the way, does spin_lock can guarantee this since it disables preempt
like what rcu_read_lock() does?

Thanks,
Kuai

My take is that the function traverses the whole blkcg tree (from global
root) and nothing prevents concurrent blkcg_css_free() in a possibly
unrelated branch (or queue).

> By the way, does spin_lock can guarantee this since it disables preempt
> like what rcu_read_lock() does?

Yes (but don't quoRTe me on that :-).

(It even isn't issue with a non-preemptible kernel neither but the code
IMO should be generic to allow for different configs -- or as I
mentioned initially, make a comment why the tree traversal is not
affected by concurrent frees.)

Thanks,
Michal
