Subject: [PATCH 5.5 34/65] io_uring: fix poll_list race for SETUP_IOPOLL|SETUP_SQPOLL
From: Xiaoguang Wang <xiaoguang.wang@...ux.alibaba.com>
[ Upstream commit bdcd3eab2a9ae0ac93f27275b6895dd95e5bf360 ]
After making ext4 support iopoll method:
let ext4_file_operations's iopoll method be iomap_dio_iopoll(),
we found fio can easily hang in fio_ioring_getevents() with below fio
job:
rm -f testfile; sync;
sudo fio -name=fiotest -filename=testfile -iodepth=128 -thread
-rw=write -ioengine=io_uring -hipri=1 -sqthread_poll=1 -direct=1
-bs=4k -size=10G -numjobs=8 -runtime=2000 -group_reporting
with IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL and IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL enabled.
There are two issues that results in this hang, one reason is that
when IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL and IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL are enabled, fio
does not use io_uring_enter to get completed events, it relies on
kernel io_sq_thread to poll for completed events.
Another reason is that there is a race: when io_submit_sqes() in
io_sq_thread() submits a batch of sqes, variable 'inflight' will
record the number of submitted reqs, then io_sq_thread will poll for
reqs which have been added to poll_list. But note, if some previous
reqs have been punted to io worker, these reqs will won't be in
poll_list timely. io_sq_thread() will only poll for a part of previous
submitted reqs, and then find poll_list is empty, reset variable
'inflight' to be zero. If app just waits these deferred reqs and does
not wake up io_sq_thread again, then hang happens.
For app that entirely relies on io_sq_thread to poll completed requests,
let io_iopoll_req_issued() wake up io_sq_thread properly when adding new
element to poll_list, and when io_sq_thread prepares to sleep, check
whether poll_list is empty again, if not empty, continue to poll.
