sbitmap: fix possible io hung due to lost wakeup
There are two problems can lead to lost wakeup: 1) invalid wakeup on the wrong waitqueue: For example, 2 * wake_batch tags are put, while only wake_batch threads are woken: __sbq_wake_up atomic_cmpxchg -> reset wait_cnt __sbq_wake_up -> decrease wait_cnt ... __sbq_wake_up -> wait_cnt is decreased to 0 again atomic_cmpxchg sbq_index_atomic_inc -> increase wake_index wake_up_nr -> wake up and waitqueue might be empty sbq_index_atomic_inc -> increase again, one waitqueue is skipped wake_up_nr -> invalid wake up because old wakequeue might be empty To fix the problem, increasing 'wake_index' before resetting 'wait_cnt'. 2) 'wait_cnt' can be decreased while waitqueue is empty As pointed out by Jan Kara, following race is possible: CPU1 CPU2 __sbq_wake_up __sbq_wake_up sbq_wake_ptr() sbq_wake_ptr() -> the same wait_cnt = atomic_dec_return() /* decreased to 0 */ sbq_index_atomic_inc() /* move to next waitqueue */ atomic_set() /* reset wait_cnt */ wake_up_nr() /* wake up on the old waitqueue */ wait_cnt = atomic_dec_return() /* * decrease wait_cnt in the old * waitqueue, while it can be * empty. */ Fix the problem by waking up before updating 'wake_index' and 'wait_cnt'. With this patch, noted that 'wait_cnt' is still decreased in the old empty waitqueue, however, the wakeup is redirected to a active waitqueue, and the extra decrement on the old empty waitqueue is not handled.
