xen-blkback: defer freeing blkif to avoid blocking xenwatch
Currently xenwatch blocks in VBD disconnect, waiting for all pending I/O requests to finish. If the VBD is attached to a hot-swappable disk, then xenwatch can hang for a long period of time, stalling other watches. INFO: task xenwatch:39 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. ffff880057f01bd0 0000000000000246 ffff880057f01ac0 ffffffff810b0782 ffff880057f01ad0 00000000000131c0 0000000000000004 ffff880057edb040 ffff8800344c6080 0000000000000000 ffff880058c00ba0 ffff880057edb040 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810b0782>] ? irq_to_desc+0x12/0x20 [<ffffffff8128f761>] ? list_del+0x11/0x40 [<ffffffff8147a080>] ? wait_for_common+0x60/0x160 [<ffffffff8147bcef>] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2f/0x50 [<ffffffff8147bd49>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x19/0x20 [<ffffffff8147a26a>] schedule+0x3a/0x60 [<ffffffffa018fe6a>] xen_blkif_disconnect+0x8a/0x100 [xen_blkback] [<ffffffff81079f70>] ? wake_up_bit+0x40/0x40 [<ffffffffa018ffce>] xen_blkbk_remove+0xae/0x1e0 [xen_blkback] [<ffffffff8130b254>] xenbus_dev_remove+0x44/0x90 [<ffffffff81345cb7>] __device_release_driver+0x77/0xd0 [<ffffffff81346488>] device_release_driver+0x28/0x40 [<ffffffff813456e8>] bus_remove_device+0x78/0xe0 [<ffffffff81342c9f>] device_del+0x12f/0x1a0 [<ffffffff81342d2d>] device_unregister+0x1d/0x60 [<ffffffffa0190826>] frontend_changed+0xa6/0x4d0 [xen_blkback] [<ffffffffa019c252>] ? frontend_changed+0x192/0x650 [xen_netback] [<ffffffff8130ae50>] ? cmp_dev+0x60/0x60 [<ffffffff81344fe4>] ? bus_for_each_dev+0x94/0xa0 [<ffffffff8130b06e>] xenbus_otherend_changed+0xbe/0x120 [<ffffffff8130b4cb>] frontend_changed+0xb/0x10 [<ffffffff81309c82>] xenwatch_thread+0xf2/0x130 [<ffffffff81079f70>] ? wake_up_bit+0x40/0x40 [<ffffffff81309b90>] ? xenbus_directory+0x80/0x80 [<ffffffff810799d6>] kthread+0x96/0xa0 [<ffffffff81485934>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff814839f3>] ? int_ret_from_sys_call+0x7/0x1b [<ffffffff8147c17c>] ? retint_restore_args+0x5/0x6 [<ffffffff81485930>] ? gs_change+0x13/0x13 With this patch, when there is still pending I/O, the actual disconnect is done by the last reference holder (last pending I/O request). In this case, xenwatch doesn't block indefinitely.
