Subject: [PATCH 4/4] block: fix fix ordering between checking QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED and adding requests to hctx->dispatch
Supposing the following scenario.
CPU0 CPU1
blk_mq_request_issue_directly() blk_mq_unquiesce_queue()
if (blk_queue_quiesced()) blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED) 3) store
blk_mq_insert_request() blk_mq_run_hw_queues()
/* blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
* Add request to dispatch list or set bitmap of if (!blk_mq_hctx_has_pending()) 4) load
* software queue. 1) store return
*/
blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
if (blk_queue_quiesced()) 2) load
return
blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests()
The full memory barrier should be inserted between 1) and 2), as well as
between 3) and 4) to make sure that either CPU0 sees QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED is
cleared or CPU1 sees dispatch list or setting of bitmap of software queue.
Otherwise, either CPU will not re-run the hardware queue causing starvation.
