From 95e5d6f62693f27d9011ec307eb32c6126314ea3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2015 14:54:58 -0700 Subject: cfq-iosched: fix async oom queue handling Async cfqq's (cfq_queue's) are shared across cfq_data. When cfq_get_queue() obtains a new queue from cfq_find_alloc_queue(), it stashes the pointer in cfq_data and reuses it from then on; however, the function doesn't consider that cfq_find_alloc_queue() may return the oom_cfqq under memory pressure and installs the returned queue unconditionally. If the oom_cfqq is installed as an async cfqq, cfq_set_request() will continue calling cfq_get_queue() hoping to replace it with a proper queue; however, cfq_get_queue() will keep returning the cached queue for the slot - the oom_cfqq. Fix it by skipping caching if the queue is the oom one.
