Commit 180dccb0dba4f ("blk-mq: fix tag_get wait task can't be awakened") will recalculate wake_batch when incrementing or decrementing active_queues to avoid wake_batch > hctx_max_depth. At the same time, in order to not affect performance as much as possible, the minimum wakeup batch is set to 4. But when the QD is small (such as QD=1), if inc or dec active_queues increases wakeup batch, that can lead to a hang: Fix this problem with the following strategies: QD : >= 32 | < 32 --------------------------------- wakeup batch: 8~4 | 3~1 Fixes: 180dccb0dba4f ("blk-mq: fix tag_get wait task can't be awakened") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/78cafe94-a787-e006-8851-69906f0c2128@huawei.com/T/#t Reported-by: Alex Xu (Hello71) <alex_y_xu@yahoo.ca> Signed-off-by: Laibin Qiu <qiulaibin@huawei.com> Tested-by: Alex Xu (Hello71) <alex_y_xu@yahoo.ca> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220127100047.1763746-1-qiulaibin@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
