[ Upstream commit c98de08c990e190fc7cc3aaf8079b4a0674c6425 ] As tasks now cancel only theirs requests, and inflight_wait is awaited only in io_uring_cancel_files(), which should be called with ->in_idle set, instead of keeping a separate inflight_wait use tctx->wait. That will add some spurious wakeups but actually is safer from point of not hanging the task. e.g. task1 | IRQ | *start* io_complete_rw_common(link) | link: req1 -> req2 -> req3(with files) *cancel_files() | io_wq_cancel(), etc. | | put_req(link), adds to io-wq req2 schedule() | So, task1 will never try to cancel req2 or req3. If req2 is long-standing (e.g. read(empty_pipe)), this may hang.

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.
