drivers/block: WQ_PERCPU added to alloc_workqueue users

2025-09-09T15:11:31+00:00

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API. alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND. This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues, allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and reducing noise when CPUs are isolated. This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues, allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and reducing noise when CPUs are isolated. This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow callers to transition their calls. Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will become the implicit default. With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND), any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND must now use WQ_PERCPU. All existing users have been updated accordingly. Suggested-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Marco Crivellari Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Instances are happier that way and it makes more sense anyway - the only part of the result that is related to partition we are given is the start sector, and that has been filled in by the caller. Everything else is a function of the disk. Only one instance (DASD) is ever looking at anything other than bdev->bd_disk and that one is trivial to adjust. Reviewed-by: Martin K.

sunvdc: Balance device refcount in vdc_port_mpgroup_check

2025-07-22T16:02:17+00:00

Using device_find_child() to locate a probed virtual-device-port node causes a device refcount imbalance, as device_find_child() internally calls get_device() to increment the device’s reference count before returning its pointer. vdc_port_mpgroup_check() directly returns true upon finding a matching device without releasing the reference via put_device(). We should call put_device() to decrement refcount. As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop the reference with put_device() after use'. Found by code review.

block: force noio scope in blk_mq_freeze_queue

2025-01-31T14:20:08+00:00

When block drivers or the core block code perform allocations with a frozen queue, this could try to recurse into the block device to reclaim memory and deadlock. Thus all allocations done by a process that froze a queue need to be done without __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS. Instead of tying to track all of them down, force a noio scope as part of freezing the queue. Note that nvme is a bit of a mess here due to the non-owner freezes, and they will be addressed separately.
