During a cgroup_rstat_flush() call, the lowest level of nodes are flushed first before their parents. Since commit 3b8cc6298724 ("blk-cgroup: Optimize blkcg_rstat_flush()"), iostat propagation was still done to the parent. Grandparent, however, may not get the iostat update if the parent has no blkg_iostat_set queued in its lhead lockless list. Fix this iostat propagation problem by queuing the parent's global blkg->iostat into one of its percpu lockless lists to make sure that the delta will always be propagated up to the grandparent and so on toward the root blkcg. Note that successive calls to __blkcg_rstat_flush() are serialized by the cgroup_rstat_lock. So no special barrier is used in the reading and writing of blkg->iostat.lqueued.

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 reStructuredText 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.
