Subject: [Bug 219166] occasional block layer hang when setting 'echo noop >
 /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler'

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219166

--- Comment #13 from Richard W.M. Jones (rjones@...hat.com) ---
To document for myself and others what I did to reproduce the bug and get the
kernel stack trace ...

(1) libguestfs from git with this patch reverted:
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/b2d682a4730ead8b4ae07e5aaf6fa230c5eec305

(2) Run guestfish in a loop until it hangs:

$ while LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND_SETTINGS=force_tcg ./run guestfish -a /dev/null run
-vx >& /tmp/log ; do echo -n . ; done


(3) Looking /tmp/log we can see it hung just after trying to set noop
scheduler:

$ tail -5 /tmp/log
+ echo 300
+ for f in /sys/block/sd*/device/timeout
+ echo 300
+ for f in /sys/block/{h,s,ub,v}d*/queue/scheduler
+ echo noop

(4) Check the log for the kernel version, install the corresponding kernel
debuginfo.

(5) Get virsh to produce a core dump of the VM:

$ virsh list 
 Id     Name                       State
--------------------------------------------
 1950   guestfs-lsdbxy71u4jg1w6x   running

$ virsh dump 1950 /var/tmp/core --memory-only

Domain '1950' dumped to /var/tmp/core

(6) Open in 'crash':

$ crash
/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/6.11.0-0.rc5.20240830git20371ba12063.47.fc42.x86_64/vmlinux
/var/tmp/core

(7) List processes and find the one which hung:

crash> ps 
...
      230      73   0  ffffa01f83c58000  UN   0.3    11608     3340  modprobe

(8) Get stack trace from the hung process:
